Building Arts Success and Home Preservation
The Building Arts Studio at Fort Hayes recently wrapped up a highly successful ninth semester! Around 25 masonry and carpentry students gained hands-on experience—mastering historic mortar blending, rebuilding failed window units, and constructing secure, brick-facade window wells. Special thanks to local preservationists Dorrie Steinhoff and Joe Kuspan for their generous tool donations this term.
