Welcome to the Escalette!
This semester has officially come to an end β¨
We did so many things this semester! Fun fact: we averaged one event every week! Absolutely insane. π±
Thank you for following us through this chaotic journey! Be on the lookout for fun content in the summer. βοΈπ
A new exhibition is here!!! π
Chromatopia is a student-curated exhibition using pieces from the Escalette Collection including artists like Roy Lichtenstein, Phung Huynh, Inna Ray, and so much more! ποΈ
Chromatopia reflects the themes + concepts discussed in AH 350: Chromophobia/Chromophilia, taught by Dr. Amy Buono. π¨
A big thank you to everyone who helped to install the show, including !
Shoutout the DCI LAB once again, for helping with the gorgeous vinyls!
And a generous thank you to Doy and Dee Henley for their support of the galleria! π
Another silly reel for a silly Friday π
I think itβs safe to say that we like doing our jobs π

Small tasks like these are a great way for student workers to problem solve and get hands on experience in collections care! π§Ή
If youβre wondering about what a collections assistant does, this is one of those things! (You should totally apply for the summer position!) π
Need a study break? π
Look no further than the Bloomberg App! Itβs free and you get behind-the-scenes access to museums and collections just like the Escalette! π
Download today to learn about the sculptures on campus and Sensation on the third floor of Beckman from a variety of students and faculty! π£οΈπ
We took a trip to MOCA to see their incredible MONUMENTS exhibition!
Special thanks to for co-sponsoring the trip! π
Highly recommend going before itβs closes in early May!
We cannot believe the semester is coming to a close π₯Ί
Hereβs a quick look at everything we did!
Thank you all for making this semester so amazing! π«Ά
