Gronk's mural displayed in the 1400 building entrance hall.

 Last semester Fullerton College welcomed internationally- acclaimed artist 'Gronk' Nicandro to the campus for the traditional Artist-in-Residence program.       

Each semester, an artist in the program leaves behind a piece of artwork to be added to the campus collection.

Last spring semester was the first time an artist's work was displayed on a location other than the Art Building.  

Gronk permanently installed a wall mural in the Social Sciences 1400 Building called "Untitled Piece."

An unveiling ceremony will take place September 22 on the courtyard of the new social sciences building. 

  "We are very pleased to get him and have his artwork permanently installed on our campus. It will be viewed for hundreds of years to come by students," said Art Department Chair Bill Hayner.

Students, faculty and the public are all welcome to the unveiling to celebrate the art piece.
