California, and now we can add some culture on Saturday, Nov. 1.The Herberger College of Fine Arts will host the first Herberger

Art Walk, to be staged along the sidewalk adjacent to the AlumniLawn in front of Old Main. It will begin immediately following the10 a.m. parade and continue until sunset.

“Coming home to ASU is designed to be rich and rewarding, aswell as a lot of fun,’’ said Dean J. Robert Wills. “We wanted to cel-ebrate our alumni – and our soon-to-be alumni – and enable themto share their talents with the rest of the campus.’’

Thirty-four artists, all of whom are ASU alumni or School of Artgraduate students, will display their work under 40 tents. Graduatesfrom 1971 through 2002 will be featured, and the media categoriesinclude: painting, furniture and lamps, ceramics, watercolor, photog-

raphy, jewelry, fiber, digital art,printing and mix media.

“This is a juried exhibition andthe selection panel has worked toguarantee a diverse selection forthe show,’’ said Deanna DePassStulgaitis, associate director ofdevelopment for the college andthe organizer of the Art Walk.“While most folks will be attend-ing the football game at 1:30, thereare some visitors who may find a

leisurely stroll through the Art Walk and around the campus theirchoice for the afternoon. So we are going to keep the art tents openthroughout the day.’’

Herberger College dancers, musicians and singers are scheduledto provide entertainment on stage in front of Old Main during theBlock Party. It will include a mix of salsa, Mariachi, jazz and classi-cal music. Security will be provided by the college, and it is hopedthe tents will protect the artists and their work from any inclementweather.

“Our academic units are all nationally ranked,’’ said Dean Wills,“so you’re going to experience great performance with a light, side-walk festival atmosphere. It’s been our goal to create a day longexperience that celebrates all of the arts.

“Homecoming is a wonderful opportunity to launch thatendeavor and we hope over the years the Herberger Art Walk willgrow and flourish.’’
