The 58 quilts made by United States and South Africa quilt artists are featured in this traveling exhibition from the Michigan State University Museum. These diverse and powerful pieces reflect the ways in which this remarkable man touched individual lives, changed a nation, and literally served as the conscience of the human spirit for individuals around the world.

On several trips to South Africa, Nancy Baird purchased basketry, wood carvings, jewelry and art from women selling their arts and craft on the streets and in their native-run shops. Her collection serves as a reminder of Nancy’s experiences on safari with husband Tom and of the research trips taken to study British women in the country in the early 19^th century. These cases show a sampling of her collection acquired while in South Africa.

Working with the Kentucky Museum Artist-in-Resident Lynne Ferguson, residents at the Warren Regional Juvenile Detention Center create street signs that inspire others and write a piece explain why they created the sign and how they want people who view the signs to feel. The exhibit will include 20 signs, student artwork and photo documentation of the project.

FREE ADMISSION

THIS GALLERY EXHIBIT WILL BE AVAILABLE FROM MONDAY, SEPT. 14, UNTIL FRIDAY, NOV. 20.

NOTICE: ADMISSION HOURS VARY BY DAY;  A LIST OF DAILY HOURS IS AVAILABLE HERE.

• Monday – Wednesday, 9 a.m. – 9 p.m. CT
• Thursday – Friday, 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. CT
• Sunday, 3 – 9 p.m. CT

Everyone is welcome to stop by the gallery and atrium on the first floor of Mass Media and Technology Hall (MMTH) on the Western Kentucky University campus to explore the historic photographs of Ed Westcott and Joe O’Donnell.

Westcott (1920 - ) worked for the U.S. government in the Oak Ridge, Tennessee, area during the Manhattan Project in the 1940’s and was one of the only people allowed to have a camera on the Oak Ridge plants during this secretive time of the development of the atomic bomb. O’Donnell (1922-2007) was a photojournalist for the United States Information Agency. As a marine, he was one of the first foot soldiers on the ground in Japan immediately after the atomic bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Westcott’s images display an America that the public was not allowed to witness, as thousands of citizens were employed in Oak Ridge to help build the atomic weapons that eventually brought an end to World War II. His images inspired Denise Kiernan to write her bestselling book, “The Girls of Atomic City." O’Donnell was on the other side of the world documenting the indiscriminate wrath this weapon unleashed on a nation at war with the United States.

Parking is free all day Sunday in most campus parking lots and after 4:30 p.m. in the Chestnut Street lot Monday through Friday. For metered parking, download this map. MMTH is located by number 4. https://www.wku.edu/transportation/maps/14-15_meter_map.pdf

Everyone is welcome to stop by the gallery and atrium on the first floor of Mass Media and Technology Hall (MMTH) on the Western Kentucky University campus to explore the historic photographs of Ed Westcott and Joe O’Donnell.

Westcott (1920 - ) worked for the U.S. government in the Oak Ridge, Tennessee, area during the Manhattan Project in the 1940’s and was one of the only people allowed to have a camera on the Oak Ridge plants during this secretive time of the development of the atomic bomb. O’Donnell (1922-2007) was a photojournalist for the United States Information Agency. As a marine, he was one of the first foot soldiers on the ground in Japan immediately after the atomic bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Westcott’s images display an America that the public was not allowed to witness, as thousands of citizens were employed in Oak Ridge to help build the atomic weapons that eventually brought an end to World War II. His images inspired Denise Kiernan to write her bestselling book, “The Girls of Atomic City." O’Donnell was on the other side of the world documenting the indiscriminate wrath this weapon unleashed on a nation at war with the United States.

Parking is free all day Sunday in most campus parking lots and after 4:30 p.m. in the Chestnut Street lot Monday through Friday. For metered parking, download this map. MMTH is located by number 4. https://www.wku.edu/transportation/maps/14-15_meter_map.pdf

The show is sponsored by WKU's Potter College, the History Department, and the School of Journalism & Broadcasting.

The 58 quilts made by United States and South Africa quilt artists are featured in this traveling exhibition from the Michigan State University Museum. These diverse and powerful pieces reflect the ways in which this remarkable man touched individual lives, changed a nation, and literally served as the conscience of the human spirit for individuals around the world.

On several trips to South Africa, Nancy Baird purchased basketry, wood carvings, jewelry and art from women selling their arts and craft on the streets and in their native-run shops. Her collection serves as a reminder of Nancy’s experiences on safari with husband Tom and of the research trips taken to study British women in the country in the early 19^th century. These cases show a sampling of her collection acquired while in South Africa.
