When Kathleen Hancock, director of Grimshaw-Gudewicz Art Gallery at Bristol Community College, returned to the Fall River campus after the holiday break, she found her gallery transformed.
âI walked in and saw a series of chairs, and I thought: How odd,â she said over the phone. âI realized something was afoot.â
The college had taken over the space as a vaccination center for Fall River fire, police, and EMS departments, and the collegeâs police department. But before vaccinations began, to Hancockâs practiced eye, the 40 socially-distanced chairs and three inoculation rooms, delineated with temporary walls, spoke volumes.
