Visual Arts Gallery presents new work by Michelle Coakes

The UIS Visual Arts Gallery will open its 2007 spring season with "Skin: New Work by Michelle Coakes," which will be on display January 16 through February 8. The gallery will host an evening with the artist from 5:30 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, January 18.
