Kitao Gallery

Kitao Gallery Kitao Gallery is an art space located next to Olde Club and the WRC. We are a student run gallery focused on displaying student art work. Kaori Kitao.

Kitao is open to anyone who would like to exhibit their work throughout the school year. Kitao History:

The Kitao Gallery space was acquired in 1999 through the joint efforts of the Student Art Association (now Kitao Gallery Board) and the Photography Club. The student art movement won the referendum against SCCS to become the only public student art space for students. Previous to 1999, the beau

tiful Tudor style building was merely used for storage and small events. Renovation of the space was completed in 2000. In May 2001, the gallery was dedicated to retired art history professor, T.

monday night !! 6-8pm !! come see kitao’s last show of the semester, featuring calligraphy and ink paintings by min fruman ‘24 and myles farrall ‘24 ٩( ᐛ )و

a little about this show: min and myles started making these works last fall when they actually had free time. since then they’ve each dropped a major (myles: chinese, min: art) but stayed in the trenches anyways. myles is the founder of swarthmore’s calligraphy club while min cannot read any of the characters he writes and has never actually studied ink painting. they would like to thank calligraphy club for indirectly/unknowingly sponsoring this show, the japanese department for printing their work on a bunch of t-shirts, and kitao for giving these pieces a home.
