Osher Update

The Osher Institute at the University of Richmond held its first-ever Member Art Show the weekend of July 18-20 in the Special Programs Building. The juried art exhibition featured more than 25 artists and kicked off with a sold-out Friday night gala. The show was opened to the public on Saturday and Sunday.

Friday evening’s gala included live music featuring Jon Nielsen and his trio. The theme of the show was the Osher Institute at the University of Richmond’s anniversary theme: “Love of Lifelong Learning.” Member-artists interpreted the theme using the art medium of their choice, capturing the essence of lifelong learning in unique ways. Works generally spoke to a journey of continuous growth, exploration, and discovery.
