the opportunity for the community to walk through our beautiful campus and appreciate
the outstanding work of each artist.
Dr. Joni Henry Noble, Professor in ULM’s School of Visual and Performing Arts, recognizes
students’ accomplishments. “I am so proud of our ULM Art Majors and all of their efforts
to curate and operate Walker Gallery. I hope everyone can attend our ULM Art Crawl
and meet these talented artists. In addition, we will be hosting our 25th Annual High School Competition in Bry Gallery. Awards and scholarships will be given
out at 6pm that evening. This is one of the most exciting and well-attended events
that we host every year. The high school students are always so talented,” Noble
said.
Following the ULM Art Crawl, the ULM Music, Theatre and Dance departments will present
"Bye Bye Birdie" at 7:30 p.m. in Brown Auditorium. The community can enjoy a full
evening of entertainment and culture on ULM’s campus that night.
