Third in a series of four biannual exhibitions curated by students enrolled in ARTH335: Exhibition Design, It’s Elemental: Earth considers how earth—in all of its forms—affects our world. Using objects from the Gebbie Archives & Special Collections and the Permanent Collection, each exhibition will explore one of the four classical elements: water, air, earth, fire.
The exhibition will be on display September 10–October 10, 2020.
Due to the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the Beard & Weil Galleries will only be open to the on-campus Wheaton community during the fall 2020 semester. We will make every effort to make our exhibitions available virtually during this time. We appreciate your patience as we navigate this global challenge and we look forward to welcoming you back to campus when we are able to resume normal operations.

In illustrative conversations, Mangin and Rattley share insights on how they crafted the multi-media tools to present history in a bold new way—covering the early years of feminism and suffrage, to the women-led anti-racist work of today.
