Abstract

In an online, multi-media poster presentation, action-research findings from two studies in Detroit are presented. Students at a public high school created drawings and sculptures to honor veterans. Their artwork was publicly displayed. Through the projects, the students learned about the social role of art. They gained appreciation of how art can be used to honor and to commemorate.
