Her work includes the large sea horses at two city pools and the blue dancers sculpture at the Pump House, a regional arts center. She has been involved with the Pump House for years, giving one-person shows and painting the patterns on the theater walls. This spring she helped judge the high school art show. “This was just a great experience, seeing the passion for art in the eyes of the students was inspirational,” Cuta said. “That has me fired up to help at whatever I can do to make the programs evolve into a great art space for the city.” This summer and fall she will be teaching batik and offering classes for a parent and child to take together and have fun. “It is a joy to see people interested in creating and expressing themselves through art,” she said. “There are many of us artists out there trying to make a difference.” |
Since retiring as an art instructor at Aquinas High School in La Crosse, Donna (Gerke) Cuta ’70 has been using her artistic talents on several projects in the local area.
