Sponsored programs in the Fine Arts truly bring the world to OSU. Grants awarded to the Department of Art this year made possible an exhibit on 19th century objects created for Native American children, brought an exhibition of paintings by a contemporary Indian artist to the Gardiner Art Gallery, and provided funding for an exhibition and lecture focusing on art from Pakistan. Members of the Department of Music faculty received grants enabling them to study new Ecuadorian music as well as piano pieces by French composers and to bring that knowledge to their students. The Department of Theatre brought Broadway to campus by staging four theatrical productions during the academic year.
