Stop Into the Student Life Art Gallery for Views of Our Area

August 25 at 9:44 a.m.

Kudos to Krista Froiseth, the person behind the series of interesting art shows in the Student Life Art Gallery in S-141. When she isn’t organizing artwork, Krista works in Student Life’s finance department.

Her most recent project is a photography exhibit/competition, “EXPOSURE: Focus – Alachua and Bradford,” a juried exhibit aiming to bring a rich visual sample of where we live, work and play – Alachua and Bradford counties – to campus.

The photos are grouped into student and faculty/staff categories. Each boasts a description that includes where it was taken, in case it inspires a vist. There are lots of photos of Paynes Prairie (by Teresa Lanier), and both natural and manmade swamps (UF).

The students are voting on their favorites; the deadline to “vote” is Tuesday, Sept. 6, and the show’s opening mixer is noon-1 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 7. The show will be up through Oct. 28.
