The
Virginia B. Ball Center
for Creative Inquiry is
housed in one of Muncie's
architectural icons, the
Kitselman house. Designed
by Scudder Atkins of
Hubert M. Gariott
Associates in Cincinnati,
Ohio, it was built in 1927
for Muncie industrialist
E. Faye Kitselman, whose
children donated the home
and its 2.65 acre grounds
to the Ball State
University Foundation in
1956.
Joe
Trimmer is the director of
the Center and is in
charge of the Center’s
big picture—its
intellectual mission and
cultural activities.
Joe’s recent work
includes books such as Writing
With a Purpose, eFictions,
and Narration As
Knowledge: Tales of the
Teaching Life.
In the Fall of 2004
Dr. Trimmer purchased a piece
entitled "Another
Hoosier Horizon" by
artist Maurice
Costello at the
Minnetrista
gallery opening of Open
Space: Art About the Land
on the Ball State campus
in Muncie, Indiana. This
annual juried art exhibit
and sale is presented
annually in collaboration
with Red-Tail Conservancy.
The exhibit features
Indiana artists and their
unique perspectives of the
land as both subject
matter and medium. |
