Environmental Art & Language 

December 5, 2024 - November 29, 2025

Reception with the student writers and artists
Monday, December 9, 4:00-5:00 p.m. (location tbd, near the installation)

The FGCU Art Galleries, in partnership with Jesse Millner, Department of Language and Literature and Sasha Minsky, Art Department, are creating a hybrid, visual art and creative writing site specific outdoor public exhibition. Under the guidance of their professors, this exhibition will be created by and feature the work of FGCU students in both programs. As the arts become increasingly integrated throughout campus, these cross curricular efforts promote increased collaboration between diverse students. The end result of the project will be a large-scale multi panel mural on display in the highly visible walkway between the Cohen Student Union & Sugden Hall leading the way to Parking Garage 1.

Students in Jesse Millner’s Nature Writing and Creative writing courses and Sasha Minsky’s The Art of Design I course will be creating the mural.

Sponsored by Gene and Lee Seidler, the Wasmer Endowment, and WGCU Public Media.
