Last January, Boise-based artist Bryan Anthony Moore took up residence at The College of Idaho’s Rosenthal Gallery of Art to begin work on a unique combination of installation and performance.

Last year, the College of Idaho raised over $125,000 in 24 hours thanks to the generous donations and pledges of the C of I community, alumni and local organizations. The first Giving Day event far exceeded the College’s initial goals — and this year, the College hopes to exceed them once again.
The 2nd Annual College of Idaho Giving Day is set for April 3, 2018, a full 24-hours of philanthropy designed to encourage the C of I community to give back to the College in a way that will maximize their gifts. Donors can specify where their contributions will be spent, from giving to their favorite athletic team, helping to fund student scholarships through the General Scholarship Fund, and contributing to ongoing campus maintenance and beautification.

And even after all the hard work she put in to make it to that point, Vitale-Sullivan couldn’t quite believe it as she crossed the finish line.
