Exhibit Chronicling MDC’s Architectural History Opens at North Campus

Tonight marks the opening of a special architectural exhibit at Miami Dade College. "A Concrete Presence: The Architecture of Miami Dade College, 1960-1970," commemorates a decade of MDC's original architecture and recognizes the innovation and unique architectural character of the College’s first buildings. As the site of our first campus, North Campus serves as the perfect venue for this art show.

Beginning this evening with the opening reception at 7:00 p.m., in room 5120 of Gallery North (11380 N.W. 27 Avenue), the exhibit consists of original photographs, architectural renderings, plans and architectural models, as well as work produced by our School of Architecture students. "A Concrete Presence" runs through Sunday, March 3.

Thank you to Curator José Vasquez; Jorge Gutierrez, director of the MDC Art Gallery System; and all of the students, staff and faculty who worked on this project.

For more information about "A Concrete Presence," call 305-237-8176 or e-mail galleries@mdc.edu.

Thank you.

Eduardo
