UA has tons of art galleries to offer and, with a little time before turkey day, there is no better chance. The Center for Creative Photography, located directly north of the Harvill building, is currently showcasing a gallery called "Africa: Photographs by Lynn Davis." It showcases a collection of photos she compiled while traveling there. CCP is open weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and weekends from noon to 5 p.m. The Lionel Rombach Gallery, located in the Art building, is displaying the feature "My Very Own Homophobia," discussing pop culture's fear of homosexuality and its current status in our society. The artist is Garth Wallrich, and this is part of his honors thesis for his art degree. Students can see the Rombach gallery during its open hours weekdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. At the Rotunda Gallery, located on the second floor of the UA Memorial Student Union, Betsy Farmer gives insight to her display called "The Swap." Rotunda Gallery hours are daily from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. The Joseph Gross Gallery is also taking part in some student work displays. The Gross Gallery is the building with the bright artwork circling the top, and is located on East Speedway Boulevard near North Park Avenue. The exhibition going on there is the annual senior exhibition, a collection of works from Fine Arts students in their last year. The Gross Gallery is open weekdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sundays from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

And the final UA gallery with art for you to view is the Arizona Gallery, another viewing spot inside the Memorial Student Union. Bill Blomquist gives viewers some of his latest and greatest work as a UA alum. That showcase is open the same hours as the student union, daily from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.

Free movies are always better. One of many free movies to make an appearance on the UA campus this fall, "The Green Mile," starring Tom Hanks, is appearing tonight in the Social Sciences auditorium, room 100. A new movie written by horror author Stephen King, The Green Mile is a tale about a Death Row inmate and security guard set in the 1950s. The movie starts at 8 p.m., but make sure to pick up your tickets in the ASUA office this afternoon. You need a pass to get in the door, and without it you are guaranteed to spend your evening standing outside looking in. Call ASUA at 621-0768 if you have any questions.
