2011: Wetlands Project

2011's program ran from July 5th–15th with 15 young women from Columbus area middle schools. These young women were mentored during their two-week study by two women graduate students, two undergraduates 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.
