Propose an Exhibit
The Eva G. Farris Reading Room, which houses the popular reading collection, is available for exhibits. The display space is primarily wall friendly with a hanging system for framed work and directional lighting. The walls are approximately 9'6" high and the 5 walls with the hanging system measure 18', 19', 22', 15', and 7' wide.
Artworks, and exhibitable concepts are invited from students, faculty, and staff of Northern Kentucky University. In addition, works by local artists not affiliated with the university may be displayed. All media will be considered as will any aspect of art (fine arts, painting, graphic design, etc.). We do not encourage sculpture in the Reading Room at present.
