Overview and metadata sections
The John B. Hurford '60 Center for the Arts and Humanities (HCAH) "supports the intellectual and artistic ambitions of faculty, students and staff, fostering collaboration, experimentation, and critical thought." Major aspects of HCAH include the Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery, the Philadelphia Area Creative Collaboratives Program, and the Tuttle Creative Residencies. HCAH also sponsors performances, workshops, and faculty and student seminars. The Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery predates HCAH as a formal program, having opened in 1994 to replace the Comfort Gallery.
Annual reports include published reports which document the various activities and programs of the Hurford Center. Publications are sponsored by the Hurford Center but mostly put together and run by students. The Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery exhibit materials include published advertising materials and exhibit catalogs; some of the exhibit catalogs are signed. And The Winner Is materials include papers created during this 2012 exhibit. Posters advertise HCAH events and programs. Miscellaneous materials relate to other Hurford Center programs.
The collection is arranged by functional areas of the Center, and chronologically within these sections.
