Experience Art
Rosenberg Gallery
Located in Calkins Hall, the Rosenberg Gallery presents exhibitions of professional artists to the Hofstra community. This provides students with the special opportunity to view world-class exhibitions and meet the artists in person. Past shows have included fine art and design work by nationally and internationally known figures. All exhibitions include a reception and gallery talk, which is a valuable resource for students and faculty. In addition, the gallery offers opportunities for Hofstra student interns.
