Our Experience of Art in Conversation with Life

So much of our time over the past year and a half has been spent connecting with people virtually. We changed our ways of experiencing education, celebrating birthdays, and practicing faith. We stopped large community gatherings and started participating with the world through intimate virtual experiences in our homes. We also changed our methods of storytelling, from sitting in a theater together to sitting on our couch while witnessing at-home performances on our screens. This challenging restriction of physical proximity, however, did not restrict a distinct group of students from experiencing, engaging with, and analyzing this past year’s performing arts season at the Wexner Center for the Arts.
