FREE Art Reception: Alumni & Faculty Exhibit

The Lehigh Valley Charter High School for the Arts (Charter Arts) Visual Arts Department will hold a FREE Opening Reception for its 2026 Alumni & Faculty Exhibit on Friday, March 6th from 6-8 PM in its Corpora Gallery. This special exhibit will feature works by more than 15 artists in a variety of mediums. Make it part of your Southside First Friday stroll along the 3rd Street corridor! Private viewing appointments are also available by calling 610-868-2971. The school's visual arts department hosts both professional and student exhibitions throughout the year and this exhibition is part of its 'Professional Series'. Artistic Director, Lorie Jane Devereux shares, "By interacting with professional artists and their collections, our students have the opportunity to experience new perspectives on how to think about their own work. They see how an artist truly dives into their vision for their work and see it all come together." The visual arts program of study at Charter Arts provides a well-rounded, structured, and classical fine art education. Approached as an academic as well as artistic discipline, the sequence of courses inspire students to form connections across the curriculum. Students progressively build conceptual understanding as they work to advance skills in drawing, painting, sculpture, digital design concepts, photography, art history, and professional practices. Over the course of study within the visual arts program, students develop a portfolio expressive of their active studio participation, work ethic, personal inquiry, passion for art, and dedication to skill advancement.
