The Delmar Riney Art Gallery welcomes a new exhibit for the month of March to Pratt Community College. This month’s exhibit features multiple artists from the Kansas Art Guild.

The Community Art guild was formed in May, 1977. The first meetings were held at Friends University with eight members present. Nona Bass, President, had just moved from Anaheim, California, to Wichita and was surprised to learn that there was no organization in Wichita for its local artists. She felt it was important that artists could meet and share ideas.

‘Tis the season of giving and Pratt Community College is giving students, employees, and the community the gift of artwork on display at the Delmar Riney Art Gallery. The November and December exhibit will display an array of artwork from photography and paintings to cross stitching all of which have been contributed by PCC employees and students.

Virgil Penner is the March “Featured Artist” in the Riney Art Gallery at Pratt Community College and he will be available on Friday, March 28, from 10 a.m. to noon to meet anyone interested in visiting with him about his artwork. This is an informal question and answer session that is open to students, faculty, staff and the general public.
