Salpointe was thrilled to host a number of exciting art shows this year. The first was an exhibit filled with extraordinary art from the Jack and Aline Goodman western art collection. Members of the Friends of Western Art and the Mountain Oyster Club were invited to a reception hosted by Alex ‘05 and Stephanie Lee. Alex is Jack and Aline’s grandson, he has also loaned Salpointe a beautiful western art collection that can be viewed throughout campus.
This year Salpointe produced three main stage productions (Disaster: The Musical, The Man Who Came to Dinner, Little Shop of Horrors) and three one-act performances (Governing Alice, Rockin’ Cinderella: The Musical and Stories That Soar! High!)
Students, alumni, faculty and staff were invited to submit art for inclusion in the anotherPerspective:2021 show in October. Over 50 works were displayed and enjoyed by guests at the opening reception and during Homecoming weekend. The Cuentos Life Stories Exhibit took place in March and examined the human experience in the personal, cultural, and societal realm through the lens of Tucson artists Ruben Urrea Moreno, Mel Dominguez and Rachel Espinoza. Together and alongside the artwork of Salpointe art students, this body of art highlighted the cross-cultural nuanced depictions of diverse cultural perspectives and emotional evolution through the creative artistic process. The 2022-23 gallery schedule includes the Dia de los Muertos Alumni/Faculty Art Show in November, Winter Student Art Show in December, Recognizing Abilities Southern Arizona Arts Guild Show in March and Spring Student Art Show in April.
