The Board of Directors of the University Museum at IUP invites you to a reception Saturday, October 23, 2021 from 6:00-8:00 p.m. in recognition of the current exhibition, Maps: An Experience in Finding Our Way.The exhibition is a campus and community collaborative effort curated by Rhonda Yeager, Bobbie Zapor, and Laura Krulikowski with support from Exhibition Coordinator James Rickard and the University Museum Board of Directors. The exhibition features maps, artifacts, and art on loan from the Historical and Genealogical Society of Indiana County, IUP Department of Art and Design, IUP Department of Geoscience, the Institute for Mine Mapping, Archival Procedures and Safety (IMAPS), IUP Libraries Special Collections and University Archives, and artists Jacob Wareham and Chuck Olson in addition to pieces from the University Museum’s collection.
