The Department of Art and Design will host an art show beginning Friday to showcase work art students created while studying abroad.

The show will include work the students produced in a painting class and a photography class overseas. The art will be shown in the Shore Art Gallery Oct. 21- Nov. 11.

The department took students to England and Italy this summer, spending three weeks in Oxford, one week in Rome and three weeks in Florence, said department chair, Mike Wiggins.

Wiggins was one of the faculty members who went on the trip along with associate professor Brandon Young.

When the students were in England, they used Oxford as a base, then traveled around to other parts of Britain. Students were also able to take several trips in to London while being there.

“Students took a painting class, photography class, and an art history course,” said Wiggins. “They got nine hours of course credit while being there.”
