| The PharmArt art show winners! |
University of the Pacific's Rite
Aid Information Commons hosted the inaugural #PharmART Art and History Exhibit on October 13th, 2015. The Art and
History Exhibit program was developed for American Pharmacists Month and
featured original artwork from Pacific students, faculty and staff.
A total of 11 art pieces were submitted in many different types of media ranging from traditional oil-on-canvas to re-purposed photography and textbook pages.
Over 60 attendees voted for their favorite pieces during the Art Opening Gala. The top three entrants won prizes, including a 1 TB External Harddrive, a $25 Amazon Gift Card, and a Pacific Tote Bag. A $15 iTunes Gift Card was also raffled off as a doorprize!
The history exhibit included Stockton directories and books from the 1800s, vintage photography, apothecary trade business cards, antique medicine boxes and containers, and apothecary labels, prescription bags and advertisements.
The Rite Aid Information Commons is proud to hold such a successful event that could bring new knowledge of pharmacy education through the use of interdisciplinary learning; awareness of Pharmacy issues can be learned through its connection with art and history!
To see more information about this exciting exhibit, go to our Facebook page, or type in #pharmart (with hashtag) on Facebook or Twitter! We will continue to bring more art to this hashtag with future art shows.
Special thanks to all the faculty, students and staff who helped make the art program a success! Through your hard work and artistic investment, we have created a successful and popular event today... and for the future.
Patrons of the Rite Aid Information Commons were happy to be able to view the art exhibit until the end of October, and many have been donated to the health sciences library for future wall decor! Check out this year's #PharmART exhibit photos below.
