HCCC Libraries Artwork

These displays are not connected to the HCCC Foundation Artwork but are placed throughout HCCC Libraries to showcase work done by staff and other members of the HCCC Community.

Presented to HCCC Libraries on May 6, 2016 by the Association of College and Research Libraries for Excellence in Academic Libraries, HCCC, along with Macalester College and Atlanta University Center, was recognized for its outstanding achievement in working to support the College's mission statement. Carol Van Houten, former HCCC Dean of Libraries, was present to receive the award.

The photo on the cover of Choice Magazine is an original photograph taken by Van Houten and shows a shot of Gabert Library at nighttime.

• Currently working as Assistant Pastry Chef at
  Son Cubano
• Wants a career in cake designing and
  decorating
• Chose HCCC because of affordability and
  location
• Her assigned cake theme was bridal shower.
  "I'm a bit more unconventional so I
  designed a cake as if it were my
  own bridal shower and I
  incorporated books into my dark romance
  theme because I'm an avid reader

Emma Dooley

• Evening pastry chef at Cho-o-Pain
  in Jersey City
• Wants to specialize in frozen
  desserts and ice creams
• Chose HCCC because it was one of the top
  culinary schools in NJ and was very affordable.
• Her assigned cake theme was sweet 16.
  "The reason why I picked
  butterflies and flowers and more
  of a sophisticated
  color palette is because
  when a girl turns 16
  she is blossoming and
  transforming into adulthood."

Curated by HCCC Archivist, Alexandra Plante, this display in Gabert Library showcases various student publications from the 1970s to the 2000s. Certain publications are no longer being published.
