For eight years, the EDW Museum has worked with a first-year student intern throughout the January short term, also known as J-term. This year our intern is Eva Greene, class of 2026. Eva is a freshman from Fulton, Maryland who loves art and who plans to major in film with a social justice minor. She will work with museum staff every day throughout the month, assisting with activities including framing/unframing works of art, accessioning and condition reporting, researching artists for upcoming exhibits, grant writing, designing publicity materials, installing and deinstalling exhibits, and more. We are happy to have Eva as part of the museum team.

We have an ambitious schedule of exhibits for the spring:
Renewing Threads: The Art of Tapestry Conservation, on view through February 26, 2023
A Marriage of Art and Math: Artwork Inspired by Dual Platonic Solids, January 26 – April 23, 2023

The Eleanor D. Wilson Museum is one of 700 academic museums across the United States. We are situated on the campus of Hollins University, located on the edge of Roanoke and Botetourt counties, and we are committed to our public both on and off campus. We strive to offer educational and provocative exhibits that contribute to the arts community in the Roanoke Valley and beyond. Admission is ALWAYS free. We hope to see you soon!

Hollins University has updated its Culture of Care and masks are now optional when you visit the Eleanor D. Wilson Museum.
