Schulman Gallery Celebrates 15 Years

The Dr. Norman Schulman Memorial Scholarship Established

Gallery 15th Anniversary

LCCC recently celebrated the 15th anniversary of the opening of the College's Schulman Gallery with a red-carpet reception at the Campus Center. The reception included an announcement of a new scholarship in memory of the late Dr. Norman Schulman, and his love of art, whose donation in 2006 established the Schulman Gallery along with his wife, Roxanne. The Dr. Norman Schulman Memorial Scholarship, established by Roxanne Schulman and the children of Dr. Norman Schulman, will be awarded to a student in good academic standing, having financial need, who is enrolled full-time in a Fine Art, Photography, or Digital Media Design degree program. Applications for scholarships will be available on the student intranet beginning March 01, 2022. Donations can be made to the Dr. Norman Schulman Memorial Scholarship Fund by following this link: https://www.luzerne.edu/givetolccc/

In celebration of the 15th anniversary, the gallery held "Tunnel Vision," an art exhibit which featured recent paintings by Sue Hand of regional coal breakers and coal miners and their families, as well as anthracite mining memorabilia from the private collection of Joseph Husty, Jr. In conjunction with the exhibit, Sue Hand created a coal breaker community painting at the gallery and a special showing of the film "Beyond the Breaker" was held at the Educational Conference Center.

A MESSAGE FROM THE CURATOR

Dear Friend Of The Schulman Gallery,

The Schulman Gallery was established in October of 2006, at the Luzerne County Community College Campus Center thanks to the generosity of Dr. Norman and Mrs. Roxanne Schulman, and other prominent members of our College and community. These initial gifts to the Luzerne County Community College Foundation have been augmented by funds from activities by faculty, alumni, and other artists, as well as generous donations from patrons which have allowed the gallery to sustain and showcase scores of exhibitions.

Since its inception, under the auspices of the Luzerne County Community College Foundation, Inc., the Schulman Gallery has provided artistic, educational, and cultural exhibitions featuring displays from community organizations, and artworks from Luzerne County Community College students, alumni, staff, and faculty, regional high school students, as well as emerging and established professional artists. Over these years, five exhibitions at the Schulman Gallery have resulted in visits from foreign diplomats to the United States.

At this time, we are reaching out to the Gallery patrons for financial support to enable the Schulman Gallery to continue its mission of providing a professional Gallery setting for our college and community.

Your support will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your generosity!
Respectfully,

Robert R. Husty

CREATIONS WITH THE CURATOR

This has been an extraordinary and unprecedented year with the challenges imposed upon society and our daily way of life by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, nature continues on its foreseeable course seemingly uninterrupted.

Now that autumn has arrived, it greets us with a plethora of vibrantly colored foliage, crisp fragrant fresh air, cherished golden light, and serves as a perfect time to experience the truly great outdoors.

Autumn is associated with harvest and a time to acknowledge growth and maturity. It is a time for reflection, but also a setting to rouse our inspiration, imagination, and creativity.

The College's campus in Nanticoke is prominently situated in a splendid scenic natural setting which is currently aglow with brilliant hues of crimson, scarlet, amber, and orange of the spectacular fall foliage. It is as if the trees have donned disguises to attend an autumnal costume ball!.

Take a moment to experience the fantastic autumnal ambience in your area!

Stay well, safe, Inspired, and creative!

Truly,

Robert R. Husty
