March is Student Art Month at the Bluffton Public Library.
Fifteen works of art from the elementary were recently chosen to be displayed. Self-portraits, landscapes, paper-weaving and optical illusions are among the work being displayed this month.
Mary Ann Sullivan, Professor Emerita Bluffton University, will deliver two illustrated lectures on prominent American artists in the new series:
• Jeff Koons will be the subject of the Wednesday, March 16 lecture
• Cindy Sherman will be featured on March 23.
Koons is one of the most controversial artists in the world today; his work, Balloon Dog (Orange) recently sold for $58,400,000, the highest auction price in history for any living artist.
The Grace Chorale and Chamber Singers from Grace University in Omaha, Neb., will be appear in concert at the Yoder Recital Hall on the campus of Bluffton University, at 7 p.m., Monday, March 21.
