FCHS Jewelry, 3D, and Sculpture classes took a field trip to Miami University today. We started out at the Miami U. Art Museum where students experienced the "Things the Move" exhibit. This was a great display of art that you were allowed to actually touch! Then we moved on to Hiestand Hall, touring the ceramics, sculpture, and metals studios. The professors were kind enough to tell us all about their art programs and show us their workspaces. After the studio tours, we went to visit the Hiestand Galleries. We had the privilege to veiw the BFA capstone exhibit and a graduate student exhibit. We had the privilege of watching Maria try her hand at some performance art!! After the galleries, we ate lunch just half a block away at the Maplestreet Station. Students could choose from a variety of restaraunts that served burgers, tacos, pizza, subs,or oriental food and they even had an awesome bakery! This was really convenient since we did not have to leave campus to eat and we were back doing field trip "stuff" within less than an hour. rAfter lunch we went to the Art Building for a workshop with Dr. Stephanie Danker's art education class. Her students put on a fabulous workshop and the students really got into making imaginative 3d characters and then painting the character in 2 dimension using water color. After making creative creatures and painting images of them, students were introduced to an art bingo game created by art education student, Lauren Kiedaisch. Lauren made art history information cards and arranged them into a periodic table format. Student teams had to locate 5 art cards in a row in order to win. This was an amazing art history experience for the students!! AND THE WINNERS WERE.........................
