[Edith Ellis]

*Plattsburgh State Art Museum *is pleased to announce our next exhibition:


*POP for the People*
Guest curator: English Department's M. I. Devine with Outside Art's Amy
Guglielmo
*Pop for the People* celebrates Pop as our most civic art. Inspired by and
interwoven with text from Devine's *Warhol's Mother's Pantry*, the exhibit
is a verbal/visual experience that puts the College's Pop Art collection
into lyrical conversation with dozens of regional artists, including the
Outside Art muralists, The Art Detectives (a neurodiverse art collective), and
students from the College and local high schools.


*Monday, February 15th through Friday March 12th.*
*(The gallery will be open daily Monday to Friday 12-4pm) *

*We will continue to be closed to the public.
Entry is only for SUNY Plattsburgh faculty, staff and students, at a
