"Celebration" by Ayesha Durrani

Ayesha Durrani's exhibit of miniature paintings, "Secrets of an Inner World," is in the Regier Gallery in Luyken Fine Arts Center just through this Friday.

Durrani, who teaches in Pakistan's National College of Arts, is spending a week at Bethel at the invitation of Rachel Epp Buller, associate professor of visual arts and design. The two became friends in graduate school at the Transart Institute.

"Untitled (Taos Mountain," an oil painting by Milford E. Greer Jr.

Milford E. Greer Jr. didn’t attend Bethel College and may never have set foot on campus, yet his name has a familiar ring to many.

That’s due to a visiting artist endowment named in his honor, which has been bringing visual artists, musicians, composers, architects, actors and filmmakers to campus for the past 40 years.

Now an estate gift to Bethel has made Milford Greer more visible through a painting of his recently hung in Luyken Fine Arts Center on campus.
