Penn State Wilkes-Barre to exhibit artwork from current, prior students

Penn State Wilkes-Barre’s Friedman Art Gallery will display a new exhibit that features artwork by students enrolled in past Penn State Wilkes-Barre art courses, including some artwork that was created by students enrolled in art classes at the campus more than 25 years ago. Organizers hope to identify the artists behind those pieces.
