Season Exhibits & Events

Highlighting the work of an MFA artist, Kalil Mitchell. 

Opening Reception: Monday, October 12 | 4 pm
Artist’s Talk at 4:30 pm

Each fall, we spotlight emerging Midwest talent. Current and recent MFA students (Masters of Fine Arts) offer a glimpse into contemporary art, and the concepts artists are exploring. Kalil Mitchell creates luminous, transcendental abstractions where light, color, and space intertwine in quiet dialogue. Her paintings invite viewers into contemplative realms of connection, impermanence, and becoming. Originally from Santa Cruz, California, Mitchell earned her MFA in Painting and Drawing from the University of Wisconsin–Madison and has exhibited nationally and internationally. She is currently an instructor of drawing, painting, and color theory at UW Madison and will work with Nicolet College art students through classroom engagement and mentorship.

Meet the artist, view her work, and hear more about her creative process during an artist’s talk at 4:30 p.m. 

Opening Reception: Wednesday, December 9 | 4 pm

The Art of Health Services celebrates the compassion, skill, and humanity at the heart of healthcare professions. As part of Nicolet College’s The Art of exhibition series, this showcase features artwork inspired by healing, resilience, caregiving, and the profound impact healthcare professionals have on individuals, families, and communities.

Through a variety of artistic media, the exhibition explores the experiences, connections, and dedication that define careers in health services. The Gallery at Nicolet College is proud to recognize the college’s programs in Nursing, Medical Assistant, Phlebotomy, Radiography, Substance Use Disorder Counseling, and Human Services, as well as the many healthcare professionals whose expertise and commitment improve lives every day.

By highlighting themes of empathy, service, and wellness, The Art of Health Services honors those who care for others and reflects the essential role healthcare plays in building stronger, healthier communities.
