Monumental Sculpture Installation, Charlestown High School, 2010

From the Charlestown High School Staff Newsletter:

Art Education Student Teacher, Kate Jellinghaus, and Art Supervising Practitioner, Moe Lane,
supported also by Art Education students from Professor Maureen Kelly's class at MassArt, Issues and
the Individual Learner: Carrie Peterson, Robert Burns, Amanda Schuermann, Dan Lambert, Mike
Guyette, Courney Look, Leah Jaffe, Nick Alberti, Emily Carroll, David Ingenthron, Laura Brady

This project is about envisioning ALTERNATIVES to the metal detectors that Charlestown High students enter when they come into school each morning. Over 40 Charlestown High art students worked in design teams to create symbolic doorways that express how they would want to feel (and others to feel) as they enter the school. These were installed in the lobby of the school like a tunnel, for students to enjoy, along with their design statements.

The Energy of Ubuntu

Towne Art Gallery, Wheelock College

The exhibit includes two quilts, designed and made by over 60 students and staff at Charlestown High School with help from TPP student Kate Jellinghaus and quilter Ann Tobey, who also directs the Ubuntu Arts social justice initiative at Wheelock. The quilts will be sold to raise money for a steel drum artist collective in Port au Prince that lost their art studio in the earthquake. The exhibit also includes work by girls in juvenile lockup, through the Boston and New York based program Artistic Noise as well as many other area youth art programs. It represents a powerful coming together of social justice issues and art making.
