Meet Our New Collaborators

A big welcome to Christine Chandler Miles. Christine, a woman of many talents and titles, (including retired preschool special education teacher of 32 years and designer of the Athens City Flag), holds a BFA and M.Ed. from Ohio University and is a certified gemologist. Christine works as both an Artist-in- Residence and a Production Aide in the studio. Christine loves to share the artwork of Passion Works Artists with others, so stop by the studio store and let her show you the latest creations.

We are thrilled to have Kasey Witherbotham and Max Wheeler join us as Production Aides. Kasey holds an Art History degree from the University of Cincinnati, with minors in Fine Art and Women’s Studies. Max holds a BFA from Ohio University with a concentration in printmaking. We are so lucky!

Consulting with us is Patty Mitchell! She is the creative founder of Passion Works and has been traveling across the United States, Chile and Kosovo to share the model of collaborative art-making. Patty will bring her expertise back to Passion Works as she consults with us to strengthen our collaborative model and further develop innovative employment opportunities through the arts. Great things are sure to happen in 2010!
