Lori Baum and Aaron Henkelman University Galleries Community Fund

The Lori Baum and Aaron Henkelman University Galleries Community Fund supports expenses associated with field trips for K-12 schools and community organizations, Teen Art Group, K-12 and family workshops linked to University Galleries' exhibitions, honoraria for alumni panels, and honoraria for inviting artists to work on projects with K-12 students and/or ISU students. Baum and Henkelman hope that others contribute to the fund "to promote creativity and creative thinking, to experience diverse art and artists, to help bring local students and families together to experience art in person--with each other and with others."
