Students in the Human Anatomy and Physiology course at Elizabethtown College have been showcasing their unique artwork at Lancaster\u2019s North Museum of Nature and Science<\/a> in \u201cThe Anatomy of Hope\u201d exhibit, which combines science, art, and the human experience.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Anna Mostoller’s bead art work titled, “Cell Membrane”<\/p><\/div>\n

The student\u2019s artwork is currently on display at the North Museum until April 24.<\/p>\n

The exhibit is a collaboration between Associate Professor of Biology Anya Goldina, Professor of History of Art Patricia Likos Ricci, Associate Professor of PK-12 STEM Education Peter Licona, along with the 23 students enrolled in a Human Anatomy and Physiology course.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The project is one of multiple extra credit projects involved in the two-semester course. It is designed to help students connect their course work to their own lives, as well as illustrate what they learned to a broader audience, through combining science with art.<\/p>\n

While the exhibit\u2019s works differ in topics and artistic media, they share one theme, \u201cKnowledge can give us hope.\u201d The theme stands in dedication to all those lost during the pandemic, and the hope that the future brings more kindness, knowledge, and connection between people.<\/p>\n

The Etown anatomy and physiology students worked to create projects that would portray this message of innovation and enlightenment.<\/p>\n

“I absolutely loved creating this project,\u201d Psychology major, Anna Mostoller \u201921 said. \u201cMost people don’t generally think of science as a field where creativity can readily be applied, so it was awesome to be able to use my creativity to make something that was both beautiful and an accurate anatomical representation of a biological structure. It is my hope that this project is appreciated by a variety of people with diverse interests, spanning from the creative artists to the scientists.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Additionally, the North Museum will be hosting a First Friday Open House April 1, from 5 to 8 p.m. This will be the museum\u2019s first event in two years since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
