2007: Wetlands Project

2007's program ran from June 18th–29th with 19 young women from Columbus area middle and high schools. These young women were mentored during their two-week study by four women graduate students, one undergraduate and the director of ACCAD.

This year's program looked at digital artists as proponents of social change through their art and animation. Projects focused on creating 3D animation with Maya on the topic of Wetlands, their history, value and preservation needs. We visited The Ohio State University's Olentangy River Wetland Research Park as a basis for our understanding of wetlands.
