The eighth annual exhibition of artwork by

Nipissing University Faculty of Education students, staff and faculty

 

January 10th - 31st, 2009

Opening Reception 12 - 4pm

 

 

“We Practice What We Preach” is an annual exhibition at the White Water Gallery of works by Nipissing University Faculty of Education students, support staff and faculty. Visual arts exhibitions form one of the most exciting and highly-motivating aspects of any visual arts program. Likewise, in visual arts pre-service teacher education, the participation of teacher-candidates in a self-organized, community-based (gallery) art exhibition provides a rich opportunity for new learning. Knowledge of, and direct experience in, the visual arts exhibition process are elements which are surprisingly lacking in many undergraduate visual arts degree programs. Student-organized exhibitions hold the potential to greatly enhance the visual arts school curriculum by providing real life experience and insight into professional art.

 

The White Water Gallery and Nipissing University’s Faculty of Education students, support staff and faculty invite you to come and take part in this unique educational experience, and see that we do indeed practice what we preach.
