PAINTING AT THE HYDE

October 4, 2011 (La Mesa) -- The Grossmont College Hyde Art Gallery opens an exhibition of paintings by: Ben Aubert, Jennifer Bennett, Daphne Hill, Tom Lazzara, Bill Mosley, Anna Stump and Michael Wheelden. All of the participating artists have represented our Art Department over the years. This makes for a logical connection between Grossmont College celebrating its fifty years of higher education and these particular examples of artwork produced by those artists having a direct influence on our students.

As a great diversity of approaches to teaching exist so too exists a strong set of contrasting styles of painting in this exhibition.

An opening event in honor of the artists will be on Tuesday, October 4th, from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. The Gallery hours are:  Monday and Thursday, 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., Tuesday and Wednesday 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Gallery is CLOSED Friday to Sunday and legal Holidays. Admission is free.   Parking is available during the exhibition with the purchase of a permit from the vending machine in lot #1F. Complimentary parking is available ONLY on the evening of the opening in lot #1.  Vehicles must be parked in designated parking stalls. The Gallery is located in Building 25 across Café 200.
