Fine Arts Adjunct Faculty Nanci Schrieber-Smith was inducted into the Culver-Stockton College Fine Arts Hall of Fame during the Alumni Honors Banquet on Friday, Oct. 7 at Culver-Stockton College in Canton Missouri. Schrieber-Smith graduated with a bachelor of fine arts in art education at Culver-Stockton and received a master of fine arts at California State University, Fullerton. Every year the Hall of Fame inducts alumni and faculty who distinguish themselves in the fields of visual and performing arts. A special distinction was given for her 2005 service learning project at Fullerton College.
Oil Portraiture Class Visiting Assisted Living Facility in 2005
Students visited an assisted living facility in Fullerton during their Oil Portraiture Class as part of this project. Before working on their portraits, students interviewed and connected with residents of the home. By discovering their interests, history and more, they painted, sketched and photographed personal artwork reflecting the lives of the senior residents. Finished copies of the portraits were printed, presented and displayed at the facility. “Our success depends on the community members who have so generously allowed us to be with them,” Schrieber-Smith said.
Schrieber-Smith is also exhibiting her solo art show, “Try Everything” in the Mabee Gallery at Culver-Stockton College. The reception was on Oct. 8 and Schreiber-Smith attended and discussed her process and work. The exhibit runs through Oct. 28.
