Falk Visiting Artist Program
The Herbert and Louise Falk Visiting Artist Program At The University of North Carolina at Greensboro
In 1982, The Department of Art began the Falk Visiting Artist Program with a generous endowment from Herbert and Louise Falk, two prominent supporters of the fine arts in the Greensboro community. With their generous support, the department has invited over sixty nationally and internationally known painters, performance artists, sculptors, potters, printmakers, photographers, and video and intermedia artists to campus.
The Falk Visiting Artist Program recognizes and supports efforts in the visual arts within national and international communities and strongly believes that our students need to be knowledgeable about art issues and contexts outside of academia.
The Falk Visiting Artist Committee invites you to become fully involved in the campus visits of these artists. Each artist has a featured exhibition of his or her creative works at the Weatherspoon Art Museum. We arrange slide presentations, gallery tours, lunches and dinners for you to attend. Please join us!
