This fall, Philadelphia-based artist Margery Amdur created mixed media installations in Augsburg鈥檚 Christensen and Gage Family galleries. Amdur鈥檚 art emphasizes the creative process and incorporates unusual materials鈥� including cosmetic sponges. The exhibition was presented as part of a collaboration among Augsburg, Bethel University, Minneapolis College of Art and Design, and St. Catherine University in conjunction with the publication of the book 鈥淐reative Practices for Visual Artists.鈥�

Here鈥檚 a new take on the 鈥渟pring thaw.鈥� Virtually all summer and fall, the Augsburg Ice Arena was iceless, which allowed construction crews to complete facility improvements, including installing a more environmentally friendly refrigerant system and upgrading the ice sheet fl oors from sand to concrete bases. Augsburg鈥檚 two-rink facility opened in 1974 and is used extensively鈥攏ot only by the university鈥檚 men鈥檚 and women鈥檚 hockey teams, but also by community groups, youth sports leagues, fi gure skating clubs, and recreational skaters.
