The Northeast Texas Community College Art Department recently hosted a reception to honor the work of 2021-2022 students. The art exhibit/contest is on display in the foyer of the Whatley Center through April 27th. The public is invited to view the free exhibit during regular business hours. Winning works are marked with ribbons.
“We are so proud of the hard work our studenats put in throughout the school year. Many of them come to our classes thinking they don’t have the ability to create art and then proceed to amaze us with their talent and creativity. Their work really speaks for itself,” Mileah Hall, Assistant Professor of Art, said.
