VISUAL ARTS INSTRUCTORS

Katy Gray

Katy Gray

Katy Gray has been creating in the medium of stained glass for over 25 years. A Wabash native, she attended Indiana Wesleyan University where she studied studio art and art education. It was there that she was first introduced to the art and craft of stained glass and discovered a skill and passion for designing and creating with the medium.  In 2012 Katy was awarded the Lilly Endowment Teacher Creativity Fellowship for her project entitled “Unearthing my Creative Identity: Preserving Indiana’s Natural Splendor in Stained Glass,” and through this project was able to study stained glass design and construction in Columbus, OH, and Fort Wayne, IN. Over the years Mrs. Gray’s artistic endeavors have evolved to include the art of glass mosaic, pique assiette mosaic, and a dabbling in fused glass.  

 

Currently, Mrs. Gray is an elementary art teacher at Metro North and Sharp Creek Elementaries in Wabash County, where she has taught for the last 10 of her 25 years as an art educator. When not in the classroom with children, she can be found in her garage studio creating stained glass artwork for private commissions or planning her next stained glass workshop for adult learners. She is happily married to her husband of 24 years, Sherman, and they have 2 children, Evelynn (21) and Hank (16).
