BACKDOOR | Editor disappointed 420 festivities not BACKDOOR | Editor disappointed 420 festivities not for her • By Maya Mazor-Hoofien

On April 20, the city of Portland exploded in holiday celebration. Lewis & Clark students gathered in observance, in a commemoration that was a welcome break from finals plagiarism and publicly crying in the silent section on the third floor of Aubrey R. Watzek library. 

What, you may be asking, were these students celebrating? Well, dear reader, with my honed journalistic senses and Jewish aptitude for gossip, I wondered the same.

ARTS | “Two Layers Away” gallery exhibit featu ARTS | “Two Layers Away” gallery exhibit features senior art • By J Frank

On Friday April 14, as part of the Festival of Scholars and Artists, the on-campus Hoffman Gallery debuted “Two Layers Away,” an exhibition of seniors’ art. Lewis & Clark’s graduating visual artists have joined forces to present this final project, making creative use of various styles and mediums to fill the space.

“Two Layers Away” was named for the way the different artworks explore the subversive messages and overlapping meanings and associations that lie below the surface of a work, whether visible or implicit. The exhibit will be open to the community through May 7, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. every day except Mondays.
