On view from Feb. 1-25 in William Harris Gallery, it features archival and current films, puppets and props from the last 40-plus years that have shaped the history of stop motion at RIT. “40 Years in Motion” is a showcase of the earliest work of notable alumni who have contributed significant work to the stop motion industry, set alongside the artistry of current students and recent graduates. 

An opening is scheduled for 6-9 p.m. Friday, Feb. 2, in William Harris Gallery. (Gannett Hall, third floor).
