Odyssey, Wheaton's senior studio art major exhibition, is set to open in Watson Gallery in Watson Fine Arts Center on Wednesday, April 18 at 7 p.m.

There is a feeling of nostalgia in this rite of passage, as this senior art show represents the last in Watson Gallery as it has stood for almost thirty years. Renovations to the gallery will begin this summer and should be completed in January, 2002.

Odyssey will be on exhibition until May 4, 2001. The Watson Gallery hours are Monday-Saturday, 12:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., and admission is free. For directions to Wheaton, go to www.wheatoncollege.edu/about/directions or call 508-286-5602.
