"When You Got It You Got It" has a second and final night

In addition to the practical learning experience that Gallery House Fellowship Programs Fellows receive, one major outcome each semester is an exhibit they put together.  This year's exhibit, "When You Got It You Got it" had its second and final successful evening for the year, on December 7, 2015.  The exhibit was held in the private Gallery at DGT Alumni Association's Old Fraternity House at 272 Clinton Ave., in Brooklyn, NY.

The opening reception of "When You Got It You Got It," the first of the program's exhibits, which are to be held twice a year, took place on December 1, 2015. This semester, two Pratt undergraduate students applied for and were accepted into Gallery House Fellowship Program. When they complete their fellowship responsibilities later in December, each will receive a $2,250 grant. The practical learning experience involves planning a fine art group exhibit, recruiting the artist, selecting a charity to financially benefit from the exhibit, promoting the exhibit, selecting the art work to be exhibited, hanging and placing the works of art, and staffing each of two exhibits nights at the private gallery of DGT Alumni Association, Inc.  "When You Got It You Got It" includes the artwork of Ze Gao, Shannon Nisiewicz, Heather Johnson, Salvador Munoz, Richard Munaba, Olivia Pasquarelli, Alexa Wilson, Liangwei Huang, Hanisha Harjani, Gabriel Garcia Roman, Emily Ercolini, Devante Hart, Charles Sommer, Bobby English Jr., Amanda Frazier, Anna Burholt, Amber Jones, Alice Yang, Alexandra Pospelova, and Ida Stein.  This semester's fellows selected the Queer Detainee Empowerment Project (QDEP) as a beneficiary charity. The second of the two exhibits for the semester is scheduled for Monday December 7th, 2015 from 7:30-11:00pm.
