Instructor Michelle Sharp
Michelle Sharp (b. 1992) is an artist and adventurer born and raised in Tarkio, Missouri. Working primarily with photography and bookmaking media, she finds inspiration in the mundane, the acts of sharing and discovery, literature, and structured systems. Michelle received a BFA with honors from the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design in 2015; her major was Photography with minors in Writing and Science. Michelle currently lives in the Fox Valley area of Wisconsin.
Michelle has shown work in various online exhibitions, such as Lenscratch and F-Stop Magazine, as well as Milwaukee galleries such as Walker’s Point Center for the Arts, The Portrait Society Gallery, and Gallerie M. Her photographs have been featured in the 2014 Best of College and High School Photography publication by Photographer’s Forum, and various independent publications. Michelle’s zines and other book works can be found in collections at the University of Milwaukee Special Collections Library and The Athens Zine Bibliotheque. Most recently, her work has been exhibited at The Art Garage in Green Bay, Arts Connective in De Pere, and through community art projects with The Building For Kids Children’s Museum.
Instructor Rachel Bailey
While Rachel’s degree is in archaeology, she has spent most of her career teaching various programs and classes on topics ranging from local history, scrapbooking, and crafting to scouting badge programs, girls in science workshops, and summer camps.
She is passionate about the arts and sciences and about providing educational opportunities for people of all ages, particularly our youth. Her parents were teachers, and she credits them for shaping her approach to things as an adult. They taught her the value of being a lifelong learner and to never stop learning new things.
Rachel learned firsthand how participation in the arts provides children and teens with a means of self-expression, allows them to build a sense of community, and reinforces lessons taught in the academic classroom. She plays the French Horn and Bass Guitar (thanks to lessons at the Hub) and enjoys singing Alto. Rachel enjoys a variety of creative endeavors including sewing, making costumes, doing cross-stitch, crocheting, knitting, and writing too!
