It’s going to feel like Wednesday all-day

Anderson Gallery, Virginia Commonwealth University, MFA Thesis Show

Covid-19 had other plans for my thesis exhibition. I returned home to Erie, Pennsylvania, when the world went into lockdown. I shortly after became a teacher at my former elementary school. Flooded with memories and new connections, I was invited to have my MFA thesis exhibition in January of 2021. Wanting. to include the students I worked with, we created It’s Going to Feel Like Wednesday all day, home of the penguin cheerleaders who live on Noun Mountain across from the Lake of Welcome.

All of the work in the exhibition returned to the students, classrooms, and cooperating teachers. Even the box of uneaten radish…they went to our class compost.

Thank you, Korin Stewart, Karissa Koeth, and the 1st Grade and Kindergarten students, for believing in the project.
