In the Fall of 2019 The ALC received a Minnesota State Arts Board (MSAB) Arts Learning Grant. Myself and 3 other artists, Niki Havekost, Chris Rackley and Bobby Marines,  held residencies with the students to teach our respective mediums. The students came to my studio and learned to bend, cut, grind and weld metal to make tabletop sculptures. Once the sculptures were complete we had an opening reception at ALC where the students presented their work. The high school wood shop built pedestals for the sculptures. The pieces were then moved to a skyway in downtown Rochester for a couple of months.  Finally, the students presented their work to the School Board in February 2020.
