Campus ChampionDowd Gallery Director Erika Fowler-Decatur admirably transformed a necessity — for the College to temporarily relocate the gallery for the past two years to rented space at Main Street SUNY Cortland — into opportunity. From the building’s third floor she welcomed the Cortland community to sample college culture with campus members venturing downtown. Presently, with two enormous moves behind her and back in the newly renovated Dowd Fine Arts Center gallery space, Erika undertakes creative ways to continue the town-gown relationship as well as include the gamut of academic disciplines in intellectual collaborations.
