2017, 25th May, Thursday – I have been writing and rewriting a lecture that I delivered on Friday, the 26th of May. The topic was ‘Art and Art Education in America’. This was requested of me by Professor Chunyan Meng of Anqing Nornal University in Anqing, Anhui Province – about 425 miles south of Jinan. I met Professor Chunyan, her husband Mr. Shane (self-selected English name) Liu – actually name: Zangshuang Liu and their 8 year old daughter Lara at Nazareth College last Fall 0f 2016. She was a Visiting Scholar for the semester and she visited my 2D-Design class and we just became good friends. As things went on I told her I was intending to teach at Shandong University of Arts and she asked if I would visit her University and deliver a lecture. They came out to the Quinn home the last day they were in the US before traveling around the east and west coast of the US. Amazing!!! and how strange our world and lives work. Anyway, here is my adventure to Anqing, China mostly in pictures.
