Medicine Hat College’s art and design program is pleased to get into the Halloween spirit as they present their seasonal exhibition, ‘Lock Your Doors.’

“It has become a tradition each October for VASS to host a Halloween exhibition of student artwork in the One-on-One Gallery,” says Jessica Plattner, program co-ordinator and instructor in the art and design program. “This year’s show includes sculptural masks, Vanitas paintings, spooky drawings, scary motion graphics and more.”

The show has been carefully curated and installed by executives and members of MHC’s Visual Arts Student Society, and includes artwork from students in each year of the program.

The exhibition is well underway, running Oct. 15-31, and those interested may view the works any time during the Cultural Centre’s gallery hours, Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

A reception, as well as a VASS bake sale, will be held tonight at 7 p.m., in which community members can also meet the artists behind the work.
