The warming spring weather is great for a lunchtime stroll around campus. And, you’re invited to stop by the Trutter Center, to see the ProText Partnership exhibit, “Text by Design,” at the Trutter Museum. This unique exhibit will close at 5 p.m. Wednesday and features the work of more than 40 students in LLCC’s 3D Design, Screen Printing and Intro to Graphic Design classes, and explores the various ways artists merge language into their visual art.
And while there, take a look at the new, temporary exhibit in the Trutter Center foyer, presented as part of the campus and community events for Dr. Chris McDonald’s new book, “‘Three Lying or Four Sitting’ — From the Front in a Ford,” an eyewitness account of World War I through the letters of Springfield native and Harvard student Kent Dunlap Hagler. The exhibit will be on display throughout April and features many of Mr. Hagler’s original letters written to his parents during the war, as well as some irreplaceable personal items.
The book is available for purchase for $19.95 in the LLCC Bookstore. All proceeds from book sales will benefit the LLCC Foundation general scholarship fund in honor of Kent Dunlap Hagler.
