A fresh batch of original art will come to the Sterling community as the 2017 Student Printmaking Show and Sale will take place on Thursday, Feb. 2, from 5-7 p.m. in the Sterling College Art and Media Center gallery. Students from the interterm printmaking classes will display and sell their prints on paper, fabric and other surfaces in a variety of formats including prints for framing, cards, scarves and banners created through a variety of printmaking techniques.

The tension and stress that accompany one’s first business lunch will not be a problem for the Sterling College business students who attended the Phi Beta Lambda business club’s etiquette dinner.  The dinner was led by volunteers Teresa Lang and Jodi Besthorn, who prepared students for the etiquette required in formal or business settings.

Celebrating the work of George and Ira Gershwin, Sterling College music students will present the College’s annual Words and Music concert on Friday, Jan. 20, and Saturday, Jan. 21, at 7 p.m. in Culbertson Auditorium. The public is invited to attend this free event.

The annual Peacemakers Convocation at Sterling College will feature speaker Christen Price, legal counsel with Alliance Defending Freedom. Price will deliver her speech at 10 a.m. Feb. 17 in Culbertson Auditorium in Spencer Hall. The public is invited to attend this free event.

Price serves as a member of the Religious Schools Team of the Alliance Defending Freedom, where she has worked since 2015. Her team works on protecting the religious freedom of faith-based educational institutions and their ability to form communities around shared religious commitments.
