Community news: Art exhibit, library programs, dance marathon and more

Valparaiso University has partnered with the Emerging Artists Society of Chesterton to launch "Stories," a multi-media exhibition hosted at the Christopher Center Library. The show features a diverse range of works created by both campus members and local community artists, supported by a public reception and a display period running through mid-May.

This collaboration highlights the growing integration between academic institutions and regional arts organizations in Northwest Indiana. By providing a platform for early and mid-career artists to showcase their work alongside student collections, the initiative fosters a local creative economy and strengthens community ties through accessible public programming.
