Hello!
Welcome to the Art History and Visual Culture (AHVC) Guild’s page! Art History and Visual Culture Society is a friendly and fun space for individuals with a passion for art and all things visual. It's here to create a system of support and solidarity between all AHVC students, but also to connect people interested in all things art! We intend on doing so through our numerous projects, some that are events spread throughout the year like conferences and informal talks while others might be more constant like socials. Finally, we have some nice surprises planned throughout the year, maybe volunteering opportunities? Exhibitions throughout the Southwest? Trips? Stash? The best way to know would be to follow us on our social media (they are all quite fun I promise)
