Join us for a student-led gallery talk showcasing 30 works from the ECC Permanent Collection, thoughtfully selected in connection with ART 152: History of Art, 1300–Present. These objects reveal how artists across time have drawn inspiration from earlier masters, movements, cultures, and regions. Through research, visual analysis, and creative connections, students have traced artistic influences from the Renaissance to modern art. Each work is accompanied by student-written wall text or handouts illuminating these links. The gallery talks invite you to experience the collection anew—through the voices, insights, and discoveries of our students.
