What is Friends of the Gallery?
This is an exciting time to be a part of Clemson University. The Friends of Lee Gallery invite you to be a part of the excitement. From the “Aligning and Defining the Future” Retreat in May 2003, a thoughtful and ambitious vision emerged to guide our efforts. With help from Friends, the Lee Gallery will:
- be housed in an outstanding piece of architecture built near the center of campus;
- be a center for cultural inquiry with interpretative and interactive programs that will include students, faculty, and the local community and will be a collaborative effort across the campus;
- incorporate visual arts into the fabric of everyday life at Clemson;
- draw an audience from the Clemson family, the local community, and the entire southeast region because of its exciting and cutting edge exhibitions;
- be know by everyone on campus and every student will be touched in some way by its innovative programming.
The Friends of Lee Gallery is a membership organization of volunteers dedicated to the advancement of the visual arts at Clemson University. There are many ways to be involved. To catch the excitement, I invite you to take a few moments to browse our website and then submit your membership and sign up for a committee!
