ARtsway Summer Tech Youth Mural Program is back for 2022! This 10-session program pairs 12 young artists with professional muralists to learn the basics of creating a mural and ends with them placing one in their neighborhood. Additionally, the last two sessions will provide augmented reality instruction and activation. Students will create an animation that brings the mural to life on their phones!

Each participating student will receive a $200 stipend upon completion.

ARtsway is made possible by City of Columbus Summer Tech, funded by the City of Columbus and Smart Columbus, in partnership with All People Arts, Franklinton Arts District, Hilltop Arts Collective, and Maroon Arts Group.

2022 INSTRUCTORS 

ASHLEY PIERCE

Picture
Ashley D. Pierce is a Columbus based mixed media artist and muralist. Pierce creates work that causes the viewer to pause and look closer both through technique and imagery. This unique and narrative style invites and encourages the viewer to create their own story and dialog with each piece. Her mural work has ties to the environment and communities they were created for.
From 2007 until June 2020 Pierce filled various roles including Studio Director, Marketing Director and Art Facilitator at a non-profit organization in Central Ohio serving adults with physical and developmental disabilities. The experience produced a unique perspective on how art benefits and connects people and Pierce is passionate about sharing that as a full-time artist.
Pierce’s work has been shown in exhibitions nationally including Chicago and New York. She was a featured artist in the show “New Horizons- Self Taught Art of the 20th Century” at the Hickory Museum of Art in North Carolina. She has also served as a juror for several art shows and volunteers with non-profit art galleries and organizations. Pierce is passionate about mentoring other artists and enjoys sharing her work and experience with others.
