HCCC Libraries Artwork

Showcasing artwork displayed in both Gabert and NHC Libraries.

Special Displays

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.

Choice Award

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.

Kali D'Amato

  • 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."
