Reception: Sept. 22, 4:30 - 7 PM

A&O Productions is the student group responsible for bringing large-scale concerts, speakers, films and other events to the Northwestern campus. This organization has provided top entertainment which has included: Bob Dylan, Muddy Waters, The Ramones, Wyclef Jean, Tori Amos, and Kanye West. Initially established as a special committee of ASG, A & O (Activities and Organizations) eventually became a separate group in 1982. This exhibit celebrates and highlights over 30 years of successful programming which still remains as vibrant for today’s student as it was in 1969.

About Dittmar Memorial Gallery

Statement of Purpose

Dittmar Memorial Gallery, established at Norris University Center in 1972, is a student-operated gallery whose genuine concern is to expose, enlighten and challenge the Northwestern University community with the serious work of fine emerging female and minority artists in the local and surrounding areas. The staff at Dittmar is dedicated to fostering and developing an awareness of the changing attitudes and trends in the art world by bringing artists who work in the contemporary vein, as well as artists who offer an alternative perspective that hinges on the periphery of the art world. In essence, the goals of Dittmar Memorial Gallery coincide with the philosophy of providing well-deserved exposure to those who would not necessarily get exposure in the mainstream art world.

How to Submit

Dittmar Memorial Gallery welcomes submissions through a formal review process. Each May, the submissions committee meets to review submissions and select a season of artists for the following academic year. To submit, please send us examples of your work, an artist's statement and biography and a resume/CV. You may submit electronically by emailing dittmargallery@u.northwestern.edu or by mailing your package to:
