The Visual & Performing Arts Division of Gulf Coast State College presents Dad Jokes – Lessons from my Father by Tim Gagnon. The work in the exhibit celebrates the words of wisdom from fathers to sons. It is a fun-loving, yet heartfelt homage to all the dads, grandfathers, uncles, and mentors who have a hand in shaping the next generation. As Tim warmly says “In every stage of my life, there was a dad offering sage advice. Sometimes in jest, sometimes in stern warning, but always with my best interest in heart. Each time, it came from a legacy of wisdom spanning generations back into antiquity. Now it’s my turn to prepare the next generation.”
