Beverly Perdue Art Gallery
Located on the first floor of the John Kenny Forrer Learning Commons, the Beverly Perdue Art Gallery is a showcase for both visiting artists and the Bridgewater community. Exhibitions feature well-known local and regional artists, as well as BC faculty and art students.
All art majors have the opportunity to stage a Senior Art Thesis Exhibition at the end of the spring semester of their senior year. Senior thesis art is displayed in the gallery and across campus.
