Tomorrow I’ll be participating in a mental health, wellness, and arts festival Arts for Hearts on Morningside’s campus!
I’ll be hosting an art therapy activity involving handcraft art and origami from 10:30-11:30am, and I’ve helped coordinate two other art activities which will be led by art department faculty as well. There will be other programming simultaneously and throughout the festival window too, and this event is free and open to the public!
I was appointed to the Sioux City Art Center’s Board of Trustees in January 2021, and subsequently elected and reelected as President of the Board of Trustees in 2022 and 2023. City board appointments are for two-year terms, so my term was ending in December 2023. The Sioux City Art Center’s director and board asked me to seek to renew my appointment in October 2023, so I reapplied and waited for City Council to deliberate. They sent out my renewal letter and certificate recently!
