Pizza on Weiss Plaza
Help us ring in the new Fall Semester with the opening receptions of two exhibitions and free pizza made by the Dickinson College farm and served on Weiss plaza!
The exhibition Imprint: Selected Gifts from Eric Denker `75 (June 13-Sept.13, 2025) celebrates one of The Trout Gallery’s most generous donors: art historian, curator, educator, and Dickinson College alumnus Eric Denker ’75, PhD. Since his graduation from Dickinson College fifty years ago, Dr. Denker earned his doctorate from the University of Virginia, worked as a Senior Lecturer at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, and served as the Curator of Prints and Drawings at the Corcoran Gallery of Art. Over the decades, The Trout Gallery has received nearly 900 objects from Dr. Denker. The breadth of Dr. Denker’s giving not only reflects his own passions as a collector, but he also leaves a significant imprint upon the community by fostering a deeper understanding of the arts across time periods and cultures.
We are also celebrating the opening reception for To Listen Deeply (June 13-Dec.13, 2025) curated by Trout Gallery intern Sophy Nie’25. This exhibition examines how sound is a key component for diverse works of art. Taking inspiration from American experimental composer Pauline Oliveros’s “Deep Listening” philosophy, which encourages a heightened awareness of our sonic environment, this exhibition invites viewers to engage with the works of art on multiple sensory levels, to pay attention to perceived visual and acoustic vibrations – to listen deeply.
