The oil-on-canvas painting by Bud Gibbons, professor emeritus of visual arts, features four multi-colored faces of the Nittany Lion. Gibbons’ work was based on the “Four Marilyns” painting by Andy Warhol.
NEW KENSINGTON, Pa. — Penn State New Kensington invites a call for artists to participate in an art submission for consideration for auction at the second "Off the Wall pARTy" scheduled for June 15.

Last year's event was a success and featured artist Baron Batch, live music performances, a theatrical stage production and live art demonstrations, in addition to the auctions and food offerings.
Artists who are chosen to donate work will receive two complimentary tickets to the event.
