This exhibit highlights the work of BYU studio art students from Sunny Belliston Taylor's advanced studio course and their responses to the Education in Zion Exhibition.

• On Saturday, Nov. 28, the exhibition will sponsor a Thanksgiving program from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The program features staff members wearing period dress and sharing stories from the past.
