Women, Art, and Legacy: OLLU Students Paint Alongside the Sisters This Women’s History Month

In celebration of Women’s History Month, Our Lady of the Lake University (OLLU) continues a meaningful spring tradition that brings art, community, and legacy together. Each year, Painting I students step outside the classroom and into the serene Sisters’ Peace Garden near the CDP buildings, transforming the space into an open-air studio filled with creativity and connection.

This season, the experience takes on even greater significance. As students paint among the flowers and quiet pathways, they are joined—often unexpectedly—by the Sisters themselves, women whose lives reflect a deep commitment to service, education, and artistic expression. Their presence adds a living layer of history and inspiration, creating moments of shared reflection across generations.

Rooted in creativity and community, this experience reflects the power of art to bridge stories, celebrate women’s voices, and bring people together in meaningful ways.

OLLU warmly invites the Sisters and campus community to join Painting I students for outdoor painting sessions in the Sisters’ garden in celebration of Women’s History Month

📅 Dates/Time: Monday, March 23 & Wednesday, March 25 from 1:45 – 3:00 pm.
📍 Location: Sisters’ Garden near the CDP Buildings
🎨 Experience: Live student painting, artistic exchange, and community connection

Come enjoy a peaceful, creative atmosphere and celebrate the artistic spirit and enduring legacy of women at OLLU.
