WEST WINDSOR, NJ - The diverse talents of Mercer County Community College's (MCCC) Visual Arts students will be on display at this year's "MCCC Student Visual Arts Show" at The Gallery at Mercer from Tuesday, April 29 through Friday, May 9. The show is free and open to the public. The Gallery is located on the second floor of the college's Communications Building on the West Windsor campus, 1200 Old Trenton Road. An Opening Reception is set for Wednesday, April 30, from 5 to 7:30 p.m.

"This is an annual show that truly puts the spotlight on emerging artists who study at Mercer. Their creativity comes in all shapes, sizes and medium and is always a delight to the eye and an affirmation of the quality of the work that is produced by our students," said Dylan Wolfe, MCCC Gallery Director. "We are proud to share their work with the public."

The exhibit features works by students in the MCCC's visual and graphic art programs. The works represent all of the visual arts, including fine arts, advertising and graphic design, animation, photography and sculpture.

Also on display will be the winning poster designs promoting the exhibit, which were created by students in MCCC's Advertising Design classes. This year's design contest winners are Ana Corrales of Hamilton and Autumn Bardachino of Plainsboro.

Gallery hours for the show are: Mondays and Wednesdays 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.; and Tuesdays and Thursdays, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. For additional information, visit www.mccc.edu/gallery, call 609- 570-3589 or e-mail gallery@mccc.edu.
