Good Library Gallery
Exhibit reception: Haitian Art - The Hunsberger Collection
Throughout their extensive travels in Haiti, Goshen College Director Emeritus of
International Education Arlin Hunsberger and his wife Naomi Hunsberger
became acquainted with local artists and have collected non-commercial Haitian
artwork since they first went to the island when few tourists were visiting. The
Hunsberger Collection is one of the finest Haitian art collections in the Midwest,
and it commemorates the 40th anniversary of the Study-Service Term program
at Goshen College, as Haiti was one of more than 20 SST locations.
A reception for the exhibit will be held on Friday, Oct. 3 from 2:30 to 4 p.m. as part of the college's Homecoming Weekend festivities. The exhibit is free and open to the public.
The Library Gallery, located on the lower level of the Harold and Wilma Good Library on the campus of Goshen College, is open from 7:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. Monday-Thursday, 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday, noon to 6 p.m. Saturday and 1 to 11 p.m. Sunday.
