Andy Owen was synonymous with printmaking. The late FGCU art professor taught multiple levels of drawing and printmaking at the university for 17 years. He died this summer and will be remembered with an exhibition of his work in the Printmaking Studio on Nov. 3. The FGCU art galleries will also mark the occasion with the release of “Ghost Horizons: Chanda Jamieson and Andy Owen,” which will be given away free at the event.
MORE INFORMATION:
A courtyard reception begins at 4:30 p.m. It will be followed by a presentation by poet Chanda Jamieson and writer Jennifer Reed honoring Owen’s legacy.
At 5:30 p.m., visitors will gather for a steamroller printmaking demonstration, followed by public participation in the printing process from 5:50 to 6:45 p.m.
