Travel Memories: Acrylics, Assemblages & Alligators by Doris Arrington was inspired and encouraged by friends and students wanting to see Doris’s images of memories as she traveled throughout the world helping children and adults recover from anger, fear and abandonment. The exhibit includes representative paintings from different cultures, Russia, Ukraine, Ethiopia, South China minorities, and multimedia assemblages that contain found objects from around the world. Also included are humorous alligator boxes that are known to display personalities of the person that purchased them. The boxes come with a certificate protecting the owner from any other alligators in CA.

Over the years, Arrington and members of her department have sponsored art exhibits in prestigious galleries, government buildings, university halls and caring communities. Arrington is the author of two books and an art based assessment. She currently shows paintings and assemblages with Peninsula Art Institute in Burlingame.
