The International Experience is an exhibition organized as Penelope Bertrand’s follow-up on service project for the Benjamin A. Gilman Scholarship to promote study abroad experiences and financial literacy. This exhibition is dedicated to sharing resources with future study abroad scholarship applicants through the personal experiences, memorabilia, and more from Gilman Alumni. Featured artists traveled all over the globe and reside across the United States, each with their own individual goals and achievements.

“You will never be completely at home again because part of your heart will always be elsewhere. That is the price you pay for the richness of loving and knowing people in more than one place.” ~ Miriam Adeney

Curated by Penelope Bertrand ’26 through the support of Oglethorpe University Museum of Art, Global Education, & The Benjamin A. Gilman Scholarship.
