WOMEN OF CREATIVITY

Beck Center holds exhibitions that feature local, regional, and international artists throughout the year. As a way to share these works and tell the artists' stories, we will present a series of online exhibits for select shows. The first in this series is Women of Creativity: Four Artists, Four Perspectives. You'll meet friends and colleagues from American Greetings Lisa Atens, Jennifer Fitchwell, Terry Flores, and Val Lesiak, who showed their varied works in our Jean Bulicek Galleria.

We hope you enoy learning about these four talented artists as much as we did producing this piece - and we look forward to sharing the next virtual exhibit!
