Tom Rohr and Friends - Feb. 22 - March 11

The Lane Community College Art Gallery is proud to present "Tom Rohr and Friends", a memorial exhibition to honor our late friend and colleague Tom Rohr. The exhibition is a collective body of work donated by 22 artists from across the country. All the work has been donated to the show, which will coincide with an online auction. The exhibit and the auction will run from February 22 to March 11. Information about the auction can be found at: http://tomrohrmemorialauction.blogspot.com/

"It is our goal through the online auction to raise money to help in create the Tom Rohr Memorial Scholarship Fund. We would like to encourage the community to take part in this great event," says Jennifer Salzman, gallery director.

An artists’ lecture presented by Lisa Favero, called
"Body of Clay, Heart on Fire: Sensuality and Play in the Work of Tom Rohr," will be held February 25 at 3 p.m. with a reception immediately following.

The gallery is located in building 11 on the main campus of Lane Community College on 30th Avenue in Eugene. There is no charge for admission. The Art and Applied Design Department phone number is 463-5409.

The images show Tom's work and the exhibit postcard.
