The Jessie L. Clough Art Memorial for Teaching
In 1953, Etta Hanson gave to the college an important collection of Asian woodcut prints, porcelains, fabrics, and other objects that she and her sister had collected. Named in honor of Jessie L. Clough, the collection forms the basis of the college′s art collection. Selected objects from the collection are periodically displayed in the Clough-Hanson Gallery and are used for teaching.
Lillian and Morrie Moss Lecture Series
Often in tandem with Clough-Hanson exhibitions, the Art Department hosts an impressive annual lecture series, made possible by the Lillian and Morrie Moss Endowment for the Visual Arts. The Moss lecture series brings notable artists, art historians and museum professionals to campus for formal lectures and classroom sessions.
