Exhibition on Display: Sept. 9–Dec. 14, 2025 Tues.–Fri. 9 a.m.–8 p.m.; Sat.–Sun. Noon–6 p.m. Since 1989 when the Runyon family donated a fantastic collection of 19th and 20th century art and decorative art, the Forsyth Galleries has set about amassing a fantastic collection that we enjoy sharing with the community. Those who love and appreciate the collection have, in turn, donated or loaned a significant number of items including paperweights, Asian art, early American pewter, American Brilliant Cut Crystal, 19th century quilts, small furniture items, as well as additional paintings, works on paper and art glass. This exhibition celebrates their generosity and, we hope, will inspire others to share their treasures with the University. THANK YOU! To inquire about donating works of late 19th and early 20th art or to make a contribution to the Forsyth Galleries, contact Assistant Director and Curator Elizabeth Appleby at eappleby@tamu.edu (mailto:eappleby@tamu.edu).

Exhibition on Display: Oct.21–Dec. 13, 2025Gallery HoursTues.–Fri. 9 a.m.–8 p.m.; Sat.–Sun. Noon–6 p.m; Closed Mon. Central to McCraw's work is an integration of personal history and collective identity. Influenced by her childhood experiences in a Chicago tenement and by the creativity and perseverance of her mother, McCraw approaches quilt making as both an act of remembrance and a process of contemporary artistic inquiry. Her vivid use of color, dynamic compositions, and willingness to depart from traditional patterning signal a dialogue between inherited forms and modern expressive strategies. At once deeply personal and broadly resonant, her quilts function as objects of visual culture that bridge the realms of craft, fine art, and community service—underscoring the continued relevance of quilting as a medium of storytelling and cultural expression.

Exhibition on Display: Sept. 25–Dec. 13, 2025Tues.–Fri. 9 a.m.–8 p.m.; Sat.–Sun. Noon–6 p.m. barnes' work takes on subjects of spirituality, oral histories, power, and bell hooks philosophies testing the object/subject divide. Her figures are to be understood as her spiritual guides unbound by time. Her objects contain undeniable presences as activation of the inanimate is at the core of her practice. All this, guiding her to construct spaces in which their truths are revealed.

Keynote AddressMrs. Fern Sumpter Winbush, Principal Deputy Director Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency Tuesday, November 4 Memorial Student Center (Room 1400) 4 p.m. - 5 p.m. Keynote Reception & Exhibit OpeningAggies in Action: Honoring the Fallen, Searching for the Missing 5:15 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. MSC Forsyth Gallery

Join us for the official launch of the DWG Project, a multiyear initiative of the Texas Art Project at Texas A&M (http://texasartproject.org/) and Art This Week Productions (http://artthisweek.com/). The project reconstructs the forgotten history of DW Gallery (Dallas, 1975-1988), an artist-run space that would launch the careers of some of the most prominent artists in Texas and America. Founded by eight women who struggled to have their work shown in the mainstream Dallas art scene, DW Gallery stood as a model of resilience, ingenuity and collaboration. The evening will feature demonstrations of the project's new web resources, a screening of highlights from the artists' video oral histories and a roundtable discussion with DWG artists including Linnea Glatt, Ann Stautberg and Ellen Soderquist. The event is 5:30 to 7 p.m. at Rudder Forum, and a reception will follow from 7 to 8:30 p.m. at the J. Wayne Stark Galleries in the Memorial Student Center. The DWG Project is supported by a grant from Humanities Texas and support from Texas A&M University Libraries, the Center of Digital Humanities Research, the Melbern G. Glasscock Center for Humanities Research, the College of Performance, Visualization and Fine Arts and private donors.

The ceremony begins on the day of Silver Taps when the flag in front of the Academic Building is placed at half-staff. Notices are posted at the Memorial Student Center, Evans Library, and at the base of the flagpole in front of the Academic Building. At 10:15 p.m., chimes from the Albritton Bell Tower begin to play. The ceremony begins at 10:30 p.m. as the Ross Volunteers Firing Squad marches in slow cadence to the statue of Lawrence Sullivan Ross. Three volleys are fired. "Silver Taps" is played by six buglers three times – to the North, West, and South. This concludes the ceremony, but not the feelings of respect and honor. With respect, the ceremony of Silver Taps is dedicated to the deceased Aggie and is a solemn and serious event. Some important observances must be remembered:The area in front of the Sul Ross statue and the Academic Building is reserved for the friends and family of the deceased. Aggies do not stand or sit on the benches lining the walkway between the flagpole and the Sul Ross Statue. The darkness and quiet, which cover the campus, emphasize the mood for Silver Taps. Aggies help to retain this tranquility by covering windows, keeping noise to a minimum, and walking to and from the ceremony without talking. The name of the deceased Aggie is posted on the flagpole base during the day of Silver Taps.
