Free Photography Exhibit at Phoenix College Features
Ansel Adams, Edward Weston

As Phoenix College celebrates 90 years of serving the community, the college’s renowned photography collection is being commemorated with Celebrating Photography at Phoenix College: A Retrospective View. The free exhibit in Fannin Library includes works by Ansel Adams, Olivia Parker, Edward Weston, and Minor White.

The historical significance of the collection dates back at least five decades when the legendary Allen Dutton, Professor Emeritus and founder of the Phoenix College photography program, began acquiring pieces by notable photographers. Approximately half of the more than 200 pieces on exhibit were personally chosen by Dutton, for whom Phoenix College’s new Center for Photography was recently dedicated.

Phoenix College Theatre Presents "Tartuffe"

The Phoenix College Department of Theatre & Film proudly presents Tartuffe. In his famous comedy, Molière relates the story of an attempt by an irreclaimable hypocrite to destroy the domestic happiness of a citizen who, charmed by his seeming piety, has received him as a prominent guest.  Beneath a pious facade, Tartuffe is a schemer intent on securing Orgon’s fortune and his daughter’s hand in marriage. Will Tartuffe be rewarded with riches or will the slippery hypocrite get the comeuppance he richly deserves?

The script is translated in charming rhyming couplets, and the play will be presented in 17th century French-style settings and costumes.

What:
Tartuffe
