The artwork of faculty members past and present from SUNY Farmingdale’s department of visual communications is currently on display at Hale Hall on campus.

The exhibition is open to the public and runs through October.

The department — first known as the department of art and design when it was established in 1946 — has produced thousands of graduates who have gone on to successful careers as artists or teachers of art.

A special showing of the exhibition will be held Oct. 10 for the Long Island Retirees of UUP, who are gathering that day for a luncheon meeting at SUNY Farmingdale.
