The Adams Center for the Visual Arts was officially dedicated in a brief ceremony May 6. Westmont Trustee Walter Hansen talked about the role of the visual arts at the college, describing the Adams Center as a place to play, to be human and to worship. “Now, right here at the center of campus we have a place of deep inner refreshment,” he said. Trustee Chair Vince Nelson, Art Professor John Carlander and art major Julia Johnson led the crowd in a dedicatory prayer.

Johnson, art faculty, and Trustee Roy Goble cut the ribbon leading to the studios, classrooms and offices. Trustee Patty Martin, Professor Emeritus Tony Askew, Westmont Museum of Art Director Judy Larson and Art Council President Mary Beth Vogelzang cut the ribbon leading to the museum.
