YCCC Faculty Art Show
Showcasing Talent, Supporting Arts Education
Wells, ME (10/18/2024) — Wells, ME - As part of York County Community College's (YCCC) 30th anniversary celebrations, the college will host a faculty art show showcasing the work of talented artists from its faculty. The work of Heather Lewis, Dylan Andrews, Tim Harkness, Jill Poyourow, and Michael Lee will be on display in the Pratt and Whitney building for the community to explore and enjoy.
The College will hold an opening reception on November 14th from 5pm - 7pm. This event is free and open to the public providing art lovers an opportunity to view art and meet the talented artists of YCCC. All work will be available for purchase, with 10% of sales donated to the YCCC Foundation. The Foundation will match the funds raised to create an art supply closet for students.
"The cost of art supplies can be a barrier for students to take art classes," said Professor Mike Lee. "This art show and fundraiser is an opportunity to highlight our talented instructors and support art education for YCCC students who may not otherwise be able to take advantage of these classes due to supply costs. The generosity of our artists and support of the York County Community College Foundation is what makes YCCC an amazing place to teach because everyone cares so much for the students."
All art will be on display in the Pratt & Whitney Building Lobby until December 14th and open to the public for viewing during normal operating hours. YCCC hopes this show will be the first of many shows in this beautiful space as we celebrate the arts with our community.
