Ten Women in Art's Marg Kuhl Seminole State College's Fine Arts Gallery will focus on Florida artists this season, offering an array of media, including painting, photography, ceramics, printmaking and computer-generated images. Ten Women in Art, founded in 1983, opens the season on Sept. 2. The group's membership has varied over the years, but its mission remains constant — to educate the public about the diversity in women's art. The annual Fine Arts faculty exhibit in November and December and the Juried Student Art Exhibit in April will give the community an opportunity to discover new talent. Seminole State's Fine Arts Gallery (building G on the Sanford/Lake Mary Campus) is open Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. and also during music and theatre performances. For more information, please call 407.708.2040. All gallery exhibits are free and open to the public. TheatreThe Fine Arts Theatre's season will offer something for everyone, starting with the bizarre humor of Sarah Ruhl’s "Dead Man’s Cell Phone" in September. In November the theatre will present the classic musical comedy "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum."
