Spring 2009
Maria Coward won second place and Alex
DeVinney-Stoner won third place in the Northeast
Indiana College Student Art Exhibition at Manchester
College in March 2008. The exhibition featured
selected works by students from area universities
and colleges and was juried by Charles Shephard,
the executive director of the Fort Wayne Museum of
Art. Other IPFW students featured in the exhibition
included Rebecca Bailey, Willyum Baulkey, Holly
Dowidat, Josh Hoering, Dan Schroeder, and
Chase Wire.
Art education majors working in the local school
systems developed lesson plans and taught students
at Unity Lutheran Academy and Zion Lutheran
Academy during fall 2008. Kandace Ehresman taught a charcoal-rubbing collage project; Dan
Schroeder developed a color study project
integrating art and mathematics; and Sachiko
Janek designed a project to teach the history and
design of Native American pottery.
In November, art education majors Chase Wire,
Angela Grogg, and Christine Mathews, who
attended the Art Education Association of Indiana
conference in
French Lick, Ind.,
hosted a round
table discussion, “Three Arts
Connections
Projects,” a
presentation on
lessons they taught
in classrooms.
