With the help of three amazing volunteers, Syd Faul, Lindsey Weber, and Brianna McLean, we were able to successfully transition the groups (split into smaller groups of three) through each interactive, educational section. The sections allowed kids to imagine themselves as the insects, touch and smell parts of the natural world, as well as contribute their own touch to the art.
On Monday, July 14, I exhibited a collaboration of student work and my own work, as well as the incorporation of interactive sections of the show in the University Center Gallery on the University of Montana Campus. Between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m., I had nearly 90 kids between the ages of 2 and 10 visit the gallery. They came in groups on scheduled hours. These groups included Miss Kiddy's Corral, ASUM Childcare, a YMCA Summer Camp, and a group of international grad students from China, as well as individual visitors: Moms, Dads, and their kids.
