Upcoming events at the Gilroy Center for the Arts

The Gilroy Center for the Arts, 7341 Monterey St., will hold an artist reception for its latest exhibit, “In Good Company,” on June 17 from 4-6pm.

The exhibit features work from students of College of Adaptive Arts, which provides a collegiate experience to adults with special needs who historically have not had access to college education. CAA is an institution of lifelong learners, so once the undergraduate course of study is completed, students are welcomed and encouraged to return to enroll in a graduate program designed to get them more engaged and partnered in the community.

The arts center will also hold a pottery and ceramic sculpture sale on June 18 from 10am to 4pm.For information, visit gilroycenterforthearts.com.

Locals inducted into Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi

Three South County residents were recently initiated into The Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi, the nation’s oldest and most selective collegiate honor society for all academic disciplines.

They are:

Jason Chung of Gilroy, at San Jose State University

Rachelle Bedell of Gilroy, at San Jose State University

Collin Moosman of San Martin, at San Jose State University

They are among approximately 25,000 students, faculty, professional staff and alumni to be initiated into Phi Kappa Phi each year. Membership is by invitation only and requires nomination and approval by a chapter. Only the top 10 percent of seniors and 7.5 percent of juniors are eligible for membership. 

Phi Kappa Phi was founded in 1897. Its mission is “To recognize and promote academic excellence in all fields of higher education and to engage the community of scholars in service to others.”
