Artist-Led Hand Sewing Workshop Marks Closing Day of 'Visions of America'

 As the acclaimed exhibition "Visions of America" comes to a close, Bucks County Community College's Hicks Art Center Gallery will host "In Plain Sight," a hands-on textile workshop led by exhibiting artist Duwenavue Santé Johnson on Saturday, July 25, from 1 to 4 p.m. The three-hour workshop coincides with the exhibition's final day, offering visitors a unique opportunity to learn directly from one of the artists whose work is featured in the invitational multimedia exhibition celebrating America's 250th anniversary. Johnson, joined by artist Rae Burns, will guide participants in creating an original stitched artwork inspired by the botanical studies of historic Newtown Quaker artist Mary Ivins Cunningham and the area's rich local history. Johnson recently discovered that Cunningham is a distant relative. Using marbled fabric paper, silk, tulle, beads and other traditional materials, participants will explore 19th-century hand-stitching techniques while reflecting on stories, images and natural elements that often remain "in plain sight" but are easily overlooked. Johnson will discuss how her own textile installation in "Visions of America" was inspired by Cunningham's work and demonstrate how historical research can be translated into contemporary fiber art. The workshop costs $20 for adults and $10 for youth ages 12–16 and students, with payment collected on the day of the event. All materials are included. Advance registration is requested by emailing gallery@bucks.edu. Curated by Clifford Eberly, Senior Manager of Galleries and Exhibitions, "Visions of America" brings together contemporary artists and historical artifacts to examine the nation's past, present and future through diverse perspectives. In the exhibition, Johnson's textile work symbolically evokes the ethereal spirituality found in Cunningham's observational artwork, making the closing-day workshop a fitting culmination to the show. The Hicks Art Center Gallery is located on the east end of Bucks County Community College's Newtown Campus, 275 Swamp Road, Newtown, Pa. 18940, where there is ample free parking. Admission to the gallery is free. "Visions of America" is on view through July 25.

BCCC Graduates 28 Practical Nursing Students to Ease Healthcare Shortage

 Bucks County Community College, which has been training practical nurses for nearly 25 years, honored the class of 2026 with a graduation ceremony on Wednesday, July 1, at the Newtown Campus. The 28 graduates of the full-time, one-year accelerated program are prepared to take the NCLEX state licensing exam to become licensed practical nurses, or LPNs, and meet the high demand for nurses in our community. The class ranged in age from 21 to 50 years old, and hailed from the U.S., Liberia, Georgia, Nigeria, South Korea, Russia, and Ukraine. Meanwhile, the next class in the PN program starts in mid-July. Pre-admission testing for the 2027 cohort begins in September. Learn more by visiting the practical nursing program page or by emailing pnursing@bucks.edu. At least one graduate of Bucks County Community College’s Practical Nursing Program is ready to rest after completing the 12-month, full-time accelerated program that included early morning classes and clinical rotations. A ceremony took place July 1 at the Newtown Campus for 28 graduates, who are now poised to take state licensing exams to become Licensed Practical Nurses, or LPNs. Last year’s class had an NCLEX pass rate of 100%, with an average of a 98% pass rate over the last five years.
