Sami Milloshi, an American citizen born in Albania, has been working for Wheaton College since 2016 in the Building Service Department. He is an author of five poetry books, including Albanian Tattoo, published in Bloomington, Indiana. Last month he published his sixth book with short stories.

This is his first debut in painting. He started painting a year ago while he was writing his short stories. Milloshi says, “I like to paint because I think painting makes me able to express what has been silenced at my poetry and prose…”

Milloshi’s art exhibition opening is October 16th in the Balfour-Hood Café from 6 to 7:30pm with light refreshments.
