Although rainy weather has bogged down progress on the World War II Memorial at the south end of Memoiral Drive, plans are to have the project completed and dedicated in May. In the meantime, the area around the flagpole is being transformed into a circular pattern of flagstone designed by Seattle artist Jon Gierlich to represent history spiraling from order to chaos, as life did for those who lived before and during World War II. Plantings in the area will include beach grasses to reflect campaigns in the Pacific and at Normandy.

A new outdoor kiln under construction at the School of Art’s Ceramics and Metals Arts Building provides a protected and well-lit structure to house seven ceramic kilns, a plaster/mold making area and unobstructed space for the creation of student projects. The new structure improves health and safety issues at the ceramics studio. The program offers both a bachelor’s and a master’s of fine arts. The two-year professional program emphasizes experimental vessel format and ceramic sculpture directions. Ten NEA grants have been awarded to its graduates.
