The exhibit officially opens on Fri day at 4 p.m. On Sunday, the center will hold a reception celebrating the art with special guest speakers, in cluding U S. District Judge Ann Aiken and Lane County Commis sioner Peter Sorenson. Shankman said she hopes that the art will speak for the artists. "There are a lot of talented inmates. The work is very strong, very creative, and I'm sure it will certainly give peo ple a different impression of what it means to be an inmate," she said. The show also will honor the 30th anniversary of Sponsors, a local non-profit support organization that aides ex-inmates. The Maude Kerns Art Center is located at 1910 East 15th Avenue. — Steven Neuman Playskool Fools, Snuggle-ups to perform at EMU On Monday, the University Cultur al Forum will bring Tracy and the Plastics to the University.

LAVERNE continued from page 7 students to exhibit their work." O'Connell said students and fac ulty fondly remembered Krause's memorable character when they named the gallery after her. "She was a very energetic and dy namic woman," he said. "She would stand up at faculty meetings and put her two cents in." Krusoe said she enjoys seeing how students manipulate the space of the gallery when exhibiting work. She mentioned one of her favorite exhibits about four years ago when r a student painted the entire gallery black, built walkways, platforms and filled the entire room with wa ter. He included an upside down fragrance tree, dressed in a white gauzy costume and danced while spectators walked through. "It was incredibly magical," Kru soe said. Applications for exhibiting work in the LaVerne Krause Gallery are currently available for winter and - spring terms. They can be picked up in the Fine Arts Office located in 198 Lawrence Hall.
