Many prominent alumni of the art department of Northwestern Michigan College will have their works displayed this spring at a one of a kind exhibition, hosted at The Traverse City Art and Design Studio from March 29 through May 31.
“Three Decades of Art of NMC” has been made possible by the efforts of NMC Professor Emeritus Paul Welch. Seeking to find an outlet for all of the great art, and great artists, produced by the college, Welch, who served as the chair of the NMC Art Department for more than 30 years, came up with the idea of an alumni art show. The support of community partners has helped bring that idea to life.
