Diane Kuthy (Department of Art and Design, Art History and Art Education) and Lynn Tomlinson (Department of Electronic Media and Film) ran a two-day arts integration workshop in January 2015. The workshop involved Baltimore area art and English teachers as well as Art Education and Electronic. Media and Film students. Teachers received an iPod and training on creating animations; teachers then returned and incorporated cinematography lessons in their respective classrooms. The lessons revolved around the theme of ‘imaginary worlds’, tied to Baltimore-wide community events relating to the book, A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula LeGuin. The movies created by the various students will be showcased May 16th, from 1-2:30pm at the Creative Alliance Theater.

The workshop and event are funded by the Big Read, a program of the National Endowment for the Arts in partnership with Arts Midwest. More on The Big Read in Baltimore can be found here: http://libraries.towson.edu/big-read
