The Visual Arts Center's Tranovich Gallery hosts "Brut POP: Signal Noise for the Masses" by Walt Nichols, from December 11, 2025 – January 15, 2026.

He uses discarded materials and conceptual waste in mixed-media statements, employing chaotic black lines and vibrant colors to represent fractured data streams and digital chaos. Drawing on Dada and Neo-expressionism, the exhibit is a "protest etched in ink and paint," reclaiming societal waste to forge a defiant visual language. Join the Opening Reception on Thursday, December 11, from 6-8 PM.
