  Botanical Bridges: A Reception at The Bridge
  Friday, April 17, 2PM–4PM
  ZSR Library, The Bridge/Atrium
  Celebrate the arrival of spring with a new student art show, on exhibit at The Bridge in the ZSR Library. Information Systems is pleased to host Botanical Bridges – Observation and Invention, featuring student works from Professor Lydia Smith’s Spring 2026 Life Drawing (ART 218) class. Inspired by the Wake Forest University Herbarium and its intriguing collection of plant specimens, Professor Smith’s students created and personally framed each of the twenty-four watercolor and colored pencil drawings in the exhibition. Through a Wake The Arts grant-funded initiative, the works are on view now at The Bridge (atrium level of ZSR) through Spring 2027. An opening reception will be held Friday, April 17, from 2-4 pm at The Bridge. IS extends special thanks to Professors Lydia Smith, Art, and Christopher Krieg, PhD., Biology, Wake The Arts, Erin Kye, University Collections, and most of all, WFU’s talented student artists.
