More Details about the Art Project from Dean Nichols.

Deadline: There is no deadline for a donation; and no ideal or desired size, as we (Norwich campus) have a number of wall & exhibit options throughout the building.

Size Guidelines: a size that could be displayed on a “standard” classroom (size approx. 30 X 40 ft.) wall, conference room (15 x 20 ft), or office. A recommended size would be “poster” size - approx. 2' x 3'. There would be options for even 2 or 3 times poster size. Some other public spaces, including the lobby, hallways, etc. could accommodate a range of painting sizes. However, each of those would have to be evaluated on its own merits.

Sculptures: We would have an interest in select indoor and outdoor art, sculptures, etc.

The Dedication: (ribbon cutting, donor recognition event) is June 10th, 2005, from 3:30 - 5:30 PM.
(Thank you Dean Nichols!)
