The college will present the 215|610 CONTEMPORARY Juried Exhibition of Regional Emerging Artists on Dec. 6 at the Marple Campus.

The event begins at 4 PM with a lecture by acclaimed artist and 2017 guest juror Odili Donald Odita in the Large Auditorium of the Academic Building. The opening reception will be held from 5-7 PM in the Art Gallery.

The purpose of the juried exhibition, which includes the work of 42 artists from the Philadelphia area, is to create a platform for critical discourse through an exchange of ideas, and to push the boundaries of an age-old practice.

This special event is part of the college’s Visual Arts Series and is free and open to the public. Reservations are strongly recommended and can be made here.

The investment-management firm recently held a ribbon-cutting ceremony at its new Innovation Studio, a research and development space in the Philadelphia Design Building, located in the city at 2300 Chestnut, writes Roberto Torres for Technical.ly Philly.

CEO Bill McNabb said the outpost will house 100 employees and will be dedicated “solely to project work.”

“In the beginning, we didn’t set out to be innovators, but it eventually became part of our strategy,” said McNabb.

Lisha Davis, the Vanguard exec tasked with heading up the studio, said much of what the studio will look like and the projects it will undertake is a work in progress.
