Lynné Cravens, gallery manager at The Art Galleries at TCU, was featured on CBS 11’s morning newscast Nov. 11 in a segment to discuss TCU’s art exhibit, CREATE + PROTECT: Fashioning Safety in Times of Pandemic. Cravens said this idea was developed by gallery staff to inspire creativity during this interesting year where face coverings have become part of our new normal.

“Especially being in Texas, we are so used to greeting each other with smiles and now that part of our non-verbal language is gone,” Cravens explains. “It’s about how you can still connect with people and show who you are in a way — not to liken it to a bumper sticker — but in a way to express yourself.”
