Art Galleries
Broward College is proud to feature three different art exhibition venues at its Central, South, and North campus locations. As part of the Visual and Performing Arts department, each campus gallery hosts its own unique programming dedicated to showcasing the work of diverse contemporary professional artists, as well as serving as educational spaces for our students, faculty, staff, and community.

Current Exhibition
Israel "Isi" Ghelman: Transitions
Broward College and the Rosemary Duffy Larson are pleased to present Transitions, opening to the public on Monday, August 24, 2026, featuring works of sculpture by one of our very own, Israel "Isi" Ghelman, whose thirteen years at BC make him a fixture in our learning community and a dear member of our artistic family. Drawing inspiration from Modernist sculpture, Ghelman's work in stone, wood, metals, and found objects assumes a contemporary language all its own. Timeless materials of the natural world juxtapose against the synthetic and manmade to create a collaboration between artist and material, form and meaning.

Carlos Solorzano: Here They Come
The South Gallery is thrilled to announce a solo exhibition titled Here They Come by local artist Carlos Solorzano. The show will open on Wednesday, September 16, from 3 to 5:30 p.m. This event is free and open to the public.
"They have been here for thousands of years. Their presence has been recognized by some, hidden in plain sight, manipulated, and often ridiculed."
Solorzano drew inspiration for the title of his exhibition from the song of the same name by Ten Years After, which he heard in his youth.
In Here They Come, Solorzano showcases a varied collection of works on paper and canvas that invite the viewer to explore the spaces between the seen and the unseen. The show will feature surreal abstractions drawn from the occult, science fiction, comics, and the artist's personal experiences. Solorzano's "intention is not to portray conventional imagery in earthy acrylics or inks, but rather to blend textures, colors, and fluid forms that suggest and reinterpret a small, temporary vortex on canvas or paper."
Solorzano, who originally hails from Venezuela, was influenced greatly by the Realism of the old masters and the imagination of the Surrealists, such as Max Ernst and H. R. Giger. He studied at the Pittsburgh Art Institute and at the Instituto de Diseño de Caracas. Currently, in addition to exhibiting his work throughout Florida, Solorzano is a resident artist at The Studio 18 Complex in Pembroke Pines.
Here They Come will run at The South Gallery until November 12, 2026.
Visitors are encouraged to explore the exhibition and participate in the opening reception, where they can meet the artist and gain insights into his creative process and the inspiration behind his work.
The Fine Arts Exhibition Space
A full spectrum of work can be seen in the exhibition space within North Campus' Fine Arts Department. Our hallways are a unique venue in which contemporary and traditional approaches to sculpture, painting, drawing, and photography by students and acclaimed faculty and staff can be viewed.
Both floors offer rotating exhibition cases containing a selection of the most innovative ceramics and sculptures being produced in the department and gallery walls representing two-dimensional works of all artistic disciplines. Visitors can expect a year-round cross-section of the talent fostered in our multidisciplinary department's studios.
