Art on Main



The sixth annual "Art on Main - A Celebration of Oklahoma Art and Music" took place on Saturday, Oct. 10 in Jenks, Okla. More than 100 Oklahoman artists of all trades showcased their art and talent. Festival attendees enjoyed live bands, wine-tasting, fried food, local art and warm weather. Some even dressed up their dogs for the occasion.

Possible Midterm Topics

#1: On Oct. 23, the Intramurals division of the Huston Huffman Center is hosting a 4-on-4 volleyball tournament. This is one of the big intramural events of the season and has been widely publicized. Since entry dates are next week (starting Oct. 13), I imagine some students will be practicing and forming teams in preparation, so that would be another photo op in addition to the tournament itself. I could gather an audio clip from one of the students who won, participated or just watched. I am still brainstorming ideas for other multimedia elements I could add.

#2: Breion Rollins was hired by OU in the spring of 2009 to develop health and wellness initiatives for OU faculty and staff. This is apparently a new approach OU has taken on in order to improve the health of those working for our university. I plan to speak with Breion this week to find out if he has anything scheduled in the coming weeks to do just that. If he does, and timing allows, that is another possibility for my midterm project.
