The exhibition Jacques Callot and Those Who Came After brings together the eighteen etchings that form Callot’s pivotal masterpiece,Les Grandes Misères de la guerre (1633) (The Miseries and Misfortunes of War). In these images, Callot offers the first anti-war statement in Western art—a vision both unflinching and profoundly human. It was the first, but it will not be the last.

Join us for an evening of hymns, anthems, reflections, and readings to herald in the holiday season.

Inspired by King’s College’s historic Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols from 1918., Wilson College’s Christmas Vespers incorporates readings, anthems, and carols which speak across our divisions, remind us of our humanity, and inspire us to prepare our souls for the holiday season. 

An exhibit featuring artwork by Wilson College students will open Saturday, Nov. 1, 2025, at the Coyle Free Library in Chambersburg. The exhibition hopes to inspire visitors with the creativity and joy of a unique group of students. 

Admission is free and open to the public. 

A documentary on the work of Amos Paul Kennedy Jr., a visionary artist and educator who transforms the tradition of letterpress printing into a vehicle for social justice and collective learning. Kennedy’s prints—bold, layered, and unapologetically direct—blend typographic form with the urgency of protest, creating a body of work that speaks as much to the heart as to the eye. Each poster is a declaration, a reminder, a lesson—designed not only to be seen, but to be felt, remembered, and shared.

On Thursday, September 18 at 4:30 PM we will open the exhibition Amos Paul Kennedy Jr: Consider Everything An Experiment in the Bogigian Gallery at Wilson College. You are invited to experience the powerful work of Amos Paul Kennedy Jr., a visionary artist and educator who transforms the tradition of letterpress printing into a vehicle for social justice and collective learning. Kennedy’s prints—bold, layered, and unapologetically direct—blend typographic form with the urgency of protest, creating a body of work that speaks as much to the heart as to the eye.
