Symbiosis invites you to explore the interactions of species, environments, organizations, research, and art. This exhibition features two Sustainable Communities Partnership (SCP) Arts collaborations, Pollinator Pathways, in partnership with the St. Thomas Pollinator Path and Biology courses, and Mississippi River Experiences, in partnership with the Mississippi Watershed Management Organization, the Natural Heritage Project, and a St. Thomas Environmental Studies course, with original artwork by Sarah Nelson and Jessica Turtle and photography by Doreen Schroeder.
SCP Arts at St. Thomas develops course-based collaborations with SCP partner organizations, students, and local artists. Through the interaction of research and art, SCP Arts collaborations seek to bring to life partner-identified goals that foster interconnected human and ecological well-being in the Twin Cities.
Located in the O’Shaughnessy Educational Center at the University of St. Thomas, the Department of Art History Gallery is committed to providing an exhibition program that fosters dialogue centered around the issues of contemporary and historical art and architectural topics to encourage paths of inquiry and intercultural understanding to advance the common good.
