Deters: No charges in death of Colerain oﬃ cer Dale Woods Jennie Key, Cameron Knight and Max Londberg Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

No charges will be fi led in the death of Colerain Township Police Offi cer Dale Woods. A Cincinnati police investigation exonerated the 43-year-old Colerain Township man driving the 2003 Ford F-150 pickup truck that hit the offi cer Jan. 4. Woods, 46, was struck around 11 p.m. as he moved traffi c cones at the rainy scene of an earlier crash in the 7600 block of Colerain Avenue. He died Jan. 7 at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center. Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters said there was no evidence speed or impairment caused the accident. The press release did not identify the driver.

“The thoroughness of the investigation was remarkable, including the recreation of the actual scene,” Deters said. Police went to the scene in the dark and wet down the roads to recreate the conditions that night and see how visible Woods might have been to the driver. Colerain Township Police Chief Mark Denney said the community supChief Mark port has been strong, and Denney Woods’ family is doing well. Denney said the family was told no charges were being ﬁ led, and they were walked through the investigation. “They understood not ﬁ ling charges was the proper course of action,” he said. The driver who struck Woods released

a statement Friday through his attorney, Steve Adams. The driver wrote that he prays daily for Woods’ family to fi nd peace. “I want his family to know that I share their pain as well. I did not know Offi cer Woods, but from what I have heard and read, he was a hero, and I hope his kids can grow to be as strong as he was,” the driver wrote. He also extended his appreciation and prayers to the Colerain Township Police Department, writing he knows offi cers lost not just a colleague but a “friend and a brother.” And to the citizens of Colerain, he wrote, “I am truly sorry that one of your protectors and friends has left us so soon.” Adams told The Enquirer that the driver is continuing grievance counseling

Manslaughter plea in Colerain cold case homicide Kevin Grasha Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The cold-case killing of a Colerain liquor store owner has led to a manslaughter plea. James "J.K." Toran, 43, pleaded guilty Thursday, Feb. 14 in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court to voluntary manslaughter and was sentenced to ﬁ ve years in prison. A trial last year ended with a jury unable to agree on a verdict. In November, the visiting judge handling the case, Sylvia Hendon, dismissed the aggravated murder charge against Toran.

Woods Continued from Page 1A

The driver felt relieved no charges were ﬁ led, Adams added. “He doesn’t believe nor do I believe he did anything wrong,” Adams said. “It’s an unfortunate accident.” Denney said a sixperson committee has been appointed to go through the investigation to see if any procedures or policies need to be changed. Denney said in a statement after the Friday press conference that he asked Cincinnati Police to investigate the crash from a desire to see justice done for Dale.

She found the evidence for that charge "insuﬃ cient." Prosecutors said the December 2012 killing stemmed from jealousy James over a woman who Toran worked at the store. Venkat Reddy-Goli, who coowned the Colerain Avenue store, was in a sexual relationship with the woman, and Toran had been involved with her. But no physical evidence tied Toran to the crime. The prosecution's case against him relied heavily on the testimony of two cooperating witnesses who

He said everyone deserved a professional, unbiased investigation to determine the facts and decide the proper course of action. “We were in no position to do that,” he said. Denney said his oﬃ cer was wearing his reﬂ ective vest at the time he was struck. “Through the investigation, it was made clear that Dale was not at fault for this crash. He was properly conducting his duty and was wearing all safety equipment as required by policy,” Denney said. “However, even when we take all the necessary precautions, accidents happen, and tragedies occur. Police work is dangerous.”

"I think there were a lot of people involved in this incident," Thurner said. Toran, who spent more than two years in jail as he fought the charges, would have spent more time locked up if a second trial ended with a hung jury. His ﬁ ve-year sentence includes the time he's already spent in jail. "He wanted to take some ownership of his life," Thurner said, "and now he'll be able to go back to his family."

That year, the key cooperating witnesses, Billy Russia, talked to investigators about the killing of Goli. Russia, now 43, said he gave Toran the gun, a long-nose revolver. He also said he was the getaway driver and that he took some of the money. Prosecutors acknowledged during the trial that Russia's statements were enough to charge him with aggravated murder, but he never was. Goli was beaten in the face and was

Tips to become a former smoker Changing one behavior — tobacco use — can greatly improve your health, reducing your risk of cancer, heart disease and stroke.

Motorists are now prohibited from making a left turn on red at the end of the ramp from eastbound I-74 to old Rybolt Road. The Ohio Department of Transportation made the change after analysis revealed a pattern of accidents and near misses involving vehicles turning left on red at this intersection. PROVIDED

O’dell M. Owens, MD, MPH President & CEO

And many of those with this habit would like to stop: Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show that nearly 7 in 10 want to quit. But a formidable opponent stands in your way: Nicotine, which is highly addictive and perhaps as hard to quit as heroin or cocaine. It’s important to remember that quitting tobacco is a journey. If you’ve attempted to quit without success, keep at it. Some suggestions to improve your odds: • Try different cessation methods. Support groups, counseling and web-based program or apps are just a few of the proven ways to quit. If one doesn’t work for you, try another! • Consider using nicotine replacement therapy. This small amount of nicotine helps satisfy your craving for nicotine and reduces the urge to use tobacco. • Look at ways to decrease stress in your life, as well as other things that may trigger you to use tobacco.

SPRINGDALE Payless closing three local stores Discount shoe store Payless ShoeSource has fi led for bankruptcy protection, according to USA TODAY and will close three of 16 Cincinnati area stores. The Chapter 11 reorganization petition in U.S. Bankruptcy Court was fi led to ensure long-term success and restructure the company's debt load, according to court documents. In a statement, the company said it should fi nish the process in approximately four months. The company has $1 billion in assets and up to $10 billion in liabilities, along with more than 100,000 creditors.

More than 400 underperforming stores will close nationwide, according to the company's website. The company, which has hired a third party to oversee the closings including discounting and promotions, also said additional closures are possible. It said it was "working to aggressively manage the remaining real estate portfolio either by modifying terms (of leases) or evaluating closures of additioal locations." “This is a diﬃ cult, but necessary decision driven by the continued challenges of the retail environment, which will only intensify. We will build a stronger Payless for our customers, vendors and suppliers, associates, business partners and other stakeholders through this process," Paul Jones, Payless CEO said in a statement. "While we have had to make many tough choices, we appreciate the substantial support we have received from our lenders, who share our belief that we have a unique opportunity to enable Payless — the iconic American footwear retailer with one of the best-recognized global brands — to remain the go-to shoe store for customers in America and around the globe.” No local Kentucky stores will close, but in Ohio: stores at 642 Race St., Downtown and two suburban stores, one in the Delhi Shopping Center in Delhi Township and the other at Tri-County Mall in Springdale are on the list.

Feds investigating oﬃ cer who used Taser on 11-year-old Sharon Coolidge Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Federal authorities are investigating whether Cincinnati Police Offi cer Kevin Brown violated the civil rights of an 11year-old girl whom he shot with a Taser after he suspected she was shoplifting. Fraternal Order of Police President Dan Hils made the investigation public Friday, Feb. 1 after he learned of it. "I have been informed that the FBI is asking for voluntary interviews of offi cers on the scene of Kevin Brown's arrest of the young theft suspect at Kroger," he told The Enquirer. Cincinnati police confi rmed the investigation and said the department "is cooperating." Such investigations are unusual because proving civil rights violations can be diffi cult. Federal authorities will look at whether Brown purposely used excessive force, or whether he acted based on the girl's race or gender. If they fi nd he did, Brown could be criminally charged and possibly face prison time. Civil rights attorney Al Gerhardstein represents the family and said if approached, they would cooperate. "But any investigation should also review the broader systemic issue of excessive force against juveniles generally and the extreme racial disparity regarding juvenile arrests," Garhardstein said. The incident, which happened last Aug. 6 at the Spring Grove Village Kroger, captured national attention because Brown told Donesha Gowdy, who is now 12, "You know, sweetheart, this is why there’s no grocery stores in the black community.” Donesha had stolen $53 worth of snacks, police said. She was not charged. Brown, who was being paid by Kroger to monitor shoplifting, caught three girls shoplifting, telling them to stop,

Donesha $220,000 and Kroger will pay her $20,000, money that will be monitored by probate court to make sure it's used for Donesha's emotional care. The city has also agreed to participate in a juvenile policing problem-solving team. Last week, the city announced offi cers are to avoid using a Taser on anyone who is known to be or appears to be a young child, is elderly, pregnant or has apparent medical problems. The change doesn't bar offi cers from using a Taser on those people, but it must be limited to "exceptional circumstances" such as injury reduction. An internal aff airs investigation found Brown violated four police policies. Specifi cally, the comment about grocery stores in black neighborhoods constituted prejudice; Brown did not turn on his body camera until after he deployed his Taser; he did not warn Donesha he was going to use his Taser, and he used a Taser when the incident wasn't serious enough to warrant it. Police investigators said offi cers should use the least amount of force necessary when dealing with juveniles. Locally, federal offi cials have also said they're looking at whether they should bring civil rights charges against former University of Cincinnati Police Offi cer Ray Tensing, who shot and killed motorist Sam DuBose. U.S. Attorney Ben Glassman announced that investigation in 2017 after Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters declined to bring Tensing to a third trial on murder charges after two previous juries could not come to a decision. "My offi ce will now undertake to acquire and review the evidence from the state court trials in order to assess whether there are possible federal civil rights off enses warranting investigation and potential prosecution," Glassman's statement at the time said. He gave no timeline for a possible decision. And he'd said nothing about it since.

Homemade vinaigrette brightens a salad Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld

Sometimes what I call “simple country pleasures” happen at the least likely moment. Like today when I took a walk through my patch of woods down to the river. Wild yellow aconite was blooming through the snow. I always smile when I see this ﬁ rst harbinger of spring. Ike Leaf, who was a special friend, scattered seeds on top of the hill years ago. “They’ll self sow,” he said. And they have. Check out my site for photos.

Another bonus was ﬁ nding a tiny clump of onion chives pushing through the soil in the herb garden. Those went into our supper salad. Since it was so dull and gray outside, I wanted the salad to look colorful. Leftover raw vegetables to the rescue, along with some hard-boiled eggs and chickpeas. I didn’t put any cheese on top since I wasn’t sure if everyone wanted it. It’s always a good idea to pass cheese separately if you’re not sure. I think you’ll like the vinaigrette.

Can you help? Another Busken request: Iced rusk.

Reader Susan P. has been trying to recreate iced rusk from the former Buskens Bakery in Mt. Washington, now Mt. Washington Bakery. I’ve put in calls to both but haven’t received a response. Susan would like a recipe or a source for iced rusk in Cincinnati.

Jelly roll update A Westside reader said she always rolls her jelly rolls on the short side, not the long side as I do. Perfectly OK – you’ll get a shorter, thicker roll. Another reader sprinkles thinly-sliced strawberries on top of the jam before rolling. Yum.

My weekly batch of vinaigrette for salads

Vinaigrette is great on any green salad.

Perfect for any kind of green salad. This is my latest favorite.

RITA HEIKENFELD FOR THE COMMUNITY

Ingredients

PRESS

3-4 tablespoons dark balsamic vinegar Up to 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 1 garlic clove, minced, about 1 teaspoon About 1⁄ 2 cup olive oil Salt and pepper Instructions Whisk vinegar, mustard, and garlic together. Add oil slowly, whisking constantly. Season to taste.

Tips Plain vinegar and oil dressing - which is added ﬁ rst to greens? The vinegar because, as Cook’s Illustrated explains it, lettuce leaves have a protective waxy cuticle layer that helps keep out water based liquid, like vinegar, but oil easily penetrates it. Vinegar helps blocks oil so your lettuce doesn’t wilt. Add part of the vinegar ﬁ rst, then the oil, then the rest of the vinegar. Dress it, don’t drown it! You’d be surprised how little dressing you need for

salad. Count on about 1⁄ 3 cup dressing for anywhere from 7-10 cups of greens. Don’t add all the dressing at once.

Save some toppings for last. Reserve half of heavier nuts and cheeses to sprinkle over the salad after it’s dressed.

Exceptionally durable and easy to clean, resilient vinyl flooring is a great choice for high-traffic areas. And with wood, tile and stone looks, it’s as stylish as it is strong. It’s just one of the many advantages. And best if all, it’s Waterproof too!

Artisanal food in the heart of Lockland Coﬀ ee, kombucha and cheese: all in one unlikely spot Polly Campbell Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Surely, my phone navigation app had steered me wrong. I was looking for a coffee roaster, a cheese maker and a kombucha bar, but here I was in an industrial park in Lockland that seemed more geared to concrete than to hand-crafted foods. A big truck was turning the corner straight at me and I had to back up fast Then I spotted the multi-colored hand-painted sign: Fab Ferments. I was in the right place. This little corner of an industrial park in Lockland is the unlikely spot for three small businesses that serve small-batch, artisanally-made food and drink. "We're like OTR, but with parking." said Jennifer DeMarco of Fab Ferments. They all combine production with retail sales, and customers fi nd them, though they are not exactly in the middle of a residential neighborhood. Fab Ferments, My Artisano cheese and La Terza coff ee roaster make up this special community. Rivertown Brewery was here until they moved to Monroe. A new brewery, Cincy Brewing, is moving in soon, and another space will very likely be taken by two more food companies, a bread maker and a French caterer. Eduardo Rodriguez was in his shop in Unit 7, ready to take a break to talk cheese. He makes quite a variety of sophisticated cheeses, from a fresh style of his native country Venezuela to a Briestyle called Sharon Creek, and a washedrind St. Michael, among others. He names them for places in Cincinnati. Over a cheeseboard of his products, he talked about the magic of turning milk into cheese with diff erent combinations of yeast and bacteria, methods of curdling and cutting, and temperature. A native of Venezuela, he makes one fresh cheese that is inspired by his homeland. But most are modeled on great European examples, made with a local stamp. The milk for his goat cheese comes from Nigerian dwarf goats on a farm in Williamsburg Ohio called D& L Meadows. His cow's milk cheeses come from Jersey cows who eat grass at Swallow Hill farm in Jamestown. Rodriguez visits the farms often, talk about genetics and feed and cheese with the farmers, since everything that aff ects their milk is refl ected in the cheese. Having moved into this space in April, he has a sterile process room, where milk is curdled and infused with cultures. Then there's an aging room where cheese develops its fl avor, and some cheeses acquire a bloomy rind from certain yeasts, or he washes the rind down with saline to create a washed-rind cheese. "Cheese is alive," he said. "Food should be something that is good for you, that helps your health. The cultures that are in cheese are good, they feed the microorganisms in your digestive system."

This belief is shared wholeheartedly by his neighbors across the parking lot: Jennifer De Marco and Jordan Aversman of Fab Ferments. They make cultured vegetables like sauerkraut and kimchee and kvass. They also make kombucha, the ancient but currently trendy fermented drink that is full of probiotics, microorganisms that help digestion and general health. Kombucha is made by fermenting liquid, usually a sweetened tea, and often ﬂ avored with fruit and herbs. Back in 2010, as the drink was becoming popular, there was a crackdown on makers because the fermentation could continue past the kombucha stage and make the drink alcoholic. At that point, many commercial kombucha brewers found ways to make sure the fermentation stopped. But Fab Ferments decided to go 21 and over only. Not that their kombucha is a cocktail. It's probably not much more than the law al-

lows at 0.5% alcohol but they didn't want to have to stop their yeasts from working the natural way. "You'll see other kombuchas that include a proprietary probiotic mix," said De Marco. "Ours ferment naturally from the cultures found on the fruit and vegetables." They also use real fruit and fl avorings, not concentrates or "natural fl avoring" additions. Their taproom is wildly colorful and full of life, with 12 taps dispensing apple spice, pineapple-jalapeno-cilantro, ginger, cherry vanilla kombucha and more, changing with the seasons. "People fi nd us from all over the country," said De Marco. "We're right off the highway, and people will stop in on their way somewhere, or make a special trip." They make the taproom available to local groups, for people to give classes and they host the winter Wyoming farmers market. The day I was there a woman had brought a snake to show off . "I'm sure we could sell a lot more if we

were in OTR," said De Marco "But we really like being connected to the community here." It was pointed out several times during my visit that all the products here feature some kind of fermentation even referring to their collection as "Fermentation Station." (The character will get even stronger with a brewery and a bread bakery.) Even coff ee is sometimes fermented in the process of husking the hulls off the coff ee "cherries." Fermentation is a way of getting deep developed fl avors. It's the diff erence between milk and cheese, between fl at bread and sourdough bread. But something else connects these three businesses, and that's idealism. The kind that most food artisans share: a belief that it's possible to handcraft food, to use ingredients that are grown or raised responsibly, to stimulate community and health. That is explicitly the mission of La Terza Coff ee. Chuck Pfahler started the company but sold it to his friend David Gaines. Gaines said he wants to "use the tools of business to make the world a better place." Coff ee is the mechanism. They will make you a coff ee drink there at the Roasterie. In fact, on-site sales pay the rent. But it's not Gaines' primary goal. La Terza specializes in supplying coff ee shops. Not just with coff ee sourced from small farmers, particularly in Central America, but with training, equipment, and ongoing education. "We give a franchise-level of support to non-franchise shops." said Gaines. He thinks of La Terza as a social enterprise, with its feet in both profi t and non-profi t worlds. "Coff ee shops are often pillars of their community," said Gaines. "They're places of deep social contact." Some of the training La Terza provides helps them be better community spaces. La Terza is also about general coff ee education. They off er tours of their roasting operations, and classes on various ways to make coff ee at home. "The tours kind of pull the curtain back on coff ee. A lot of times two people come, one is a coffee geek, and one along for the ride," said Gaines. "The second one usually. has the most fun."

La Salle ﬁ nishes 2nd at state dual wrestling meet John Snodgrass Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

COLUMBUS – La Salle advanced to the Ohio High School Athletic Association Division I dual team state championship at St. John Arena at Ohio State, which was held Feb. 10. The Lancers fi nished a point shy of the state title, falling 29-28 to Lakewood St. Edward. The second-place fi nish is the best ever for a Cincinnati-area team at the state dual tournament. La Salle easily advanced to the state fi nal, knocking off Lancaster 56-12 in their state quarterfi nal before ousting Elyria 40-25 in the semifi nal round. In the state championship dual, the Lancers won the fi rst fi ve matches of the meet, opening up a 19-0 lead. But the Eagles rebounded winning the next six weight classes to pull ahead 23-19. A forfeit by La Salle at 160-pounds followed immediately by a technical fall at 170 gave the Eagles a 20-19 lead. They never looked back.

La Salle wrestler Dustin Norris reacts during the state dual wrestling meet.

The Lancers pulled within a point of St. Edward at 23-22 when Michael Baker gave La Salle a 7-1 win at 195, but a pin by St. Ed's Seamus O'Malley at 220 gave the Eagles a 29-22 lead and the win.

By February 1989, 11 years had passed since Withrow’s La Salle Thompson had played organized basketball against Aiken’s Bobby Austin, and Thompson was wondering why the two Public High School League stars weren’t still squaring off . “I tell people all the time that Bobby Austin is one of the greatest players I’ve ever seen,” Thompson, recently traded from the Sacramento Kings to the Indiana Pacers, told the Enquirer at the time. “You know how you think players are so good in high school, then you go back in a couple of years and think they weren’t really that good. After I played three years in the NBA, I went back and played in pickup games with Bobby, and he was still that good. The only player I can compare him with is Michael Jordan. He’s that kind of player. He’s so quick and can jump so high.” To say Austin was the late 1970s high school version of Jordan is not hyperbole. Playing as a junior for coach Sam Ionna at the College Hill school, the 6-foot-2, 190-pound swingman fi nished fourth in the city in scoring with an average of 21.7 points per game and was an Enquirer third-team allstar. He was just warming up. As a Falcons senior, Austin led the city with an average of 27.5 points per game and was named Player of the Year by both the Post and the Enquirer. He also earned a slot on the Associated Press Class AAA (big-school) all-state fi rst team. Along the way, Austin poured in 44 points in a game against Taft and 39 against Withrow. According to Enquirer reporter Al Drooz, Austin “led the city in drawing ooh’s and aah’s from the crowd, whether launching a feathery 25-footer or driving home a slam dunk.” Ionna said early in Austin’s senior season, “This kid is phenomenal. There’s just nothing he can’t do on the basketball fl oor. Off ensively, we know he’s always gonna do something. He was the type of guy to build a program around. We were lucky he came along.

As a senior, Aiken’s Bobby Austin led the city with an average of 27.5 points per game. ENQUIRER FILE

He may be a once-in-a-lifetime player for a coach.” Austin made Ionna confi dent enough to pick his own team to win the PHSL when every other coach picked Thompson’s Withrow team. “We’ve spent two years building a solid foundation,” Ionna said in the Enquirer’s season preview. “This year, we will start to build a tradition.” The Aiken coach proved to be optimistic as the Tigers fi nished 15-1 overall and 11-0 in the league. Aiken went 10-7 overall and tied Taft for second, each with 7-4 records. The Falcons fi nished 10-8 overall after losing to thirdseeded Elder, 57-53, in a sectional tournament game at Cincinnati Gardens that Panthers coach Paul “Hans” Frey described as the “most physical See AUSTIN, Page 2B

game ever.” Elder fi nished with 19 fi eld goals and 19 free throws, while Aiken sank 25 fi eld goals but only three free throws. Austin piled up 30 points and 10 rebounds before fouling out with 4:45 left in the game, but his career wasn’t over. Recruited by college blue bloods such as Notre Dame, Louisville, Michigan, Marquette, Syracuse and Southern California, he decided to stay home and play for the University of Cincinnati Bearcats. He logged 73 minutes in history’s longest college basketball game, Cincinnati’s 75-73, seven-overtime win at Bradley on Dec. 21, 1981, and ranked among the top 10 scorers in Bearcat his-

tory with 1,385 points when he graduated with a Criminal Justice degree, which led to a long career with the Hamilton County Juvenile Court. He currently ranks 19th on UC’s career scoring list. Austin was picked by the Milwaukee Bucks in the seventh round as the 158th overall selection in the 1982 NBA draft, but he never played professionally. His oldest son, Bobby Austin III, starred at La Salle and played collegiately at Furman. Bobby II was ranked by the Enquirer in 2006 as the 46th greatest high school played in Greater Cincinnati history.

SCHOOL NEWS Cincinnati Country Day School packs food for CPS students Cincinnati Country Day students, faculty and staff rolled up their sleeves to ensure Cincinnati Public School students had enough food to eat at home during winter break. Upper School science teacher Paula Butler and her son, Brian, a junior at CCDS, brought Childhood Food Solutions to the Indian Hill school, where 30 volunteer students, teachers and staff packed 1,300 bags of food for 1,300 families in under two hours. Childhood Food Solutions is a local nonprofi t that started 11 years ago. “Our board is a mixture of people who grew up food insecure or very close to food insecure, and people like me who always had the benefi t of food when I was growing up,” said Tony Fairhead, executive director and co-founder. Low-income families are dependent upon school meals, so they won’t have enough food during the holiday break, Fairhead told the volunteers. “That means 16 days when they and their family are used to having breakfast and lunch provided by the school. Now, the family’s going to have to come up with that food.” Bags were packed with ramen noodles, graham crackers, fruit & grain bars, and juice packets. A second larger bag of food, including peanut butter, was being packed at another site. “This is the food that stands the absolute best chance of getting the kids and their families through a winter break,” Fairhead said. The bags were delivered to two Cincinnati Public Schools - Carson School in West Price Hill and Oyler School in Lower Price Hill. The Butlers of Madeira got the idea for the Childhood Food Solutions packing effort at their church, Knox Presbyterian, in Hyde Park. Church members did a service project for the organization about a month prior to the gathering at CCDS. “Tony was trying to send home two

food packages during the month of December in order to help bridge the school vacation gap,” Paula Butler said. “He still needed help with one of those sets of packages, and I thought our school could provide it, if our students and faculty worked together.” Paula coordinated logistics with the school and Fairhead, while Brian Butler recruited volunteers. “I wanted to do it because it really bothers me that there are children that are so close to us that go without food,” Brian said. “I’ve worked with Childhood Food Solutions before through my church, so it just made sense to me to try it here. I was grateful to everyone who showed up, and I was so hap-

py that we were able to do so much. Seeing that truck so full made me proud of all of us and what we accomplished.” The Butlers hope to have a similar gathering at CCDS in May to help pack 1,500 bags for Cincinnati Public School students before summer break. Cindy Kranz

Saint Ursula students donate painting to Mercy Neighborhood Ministries Saint Ursula Academy art students are making a diﬀ erence in the East Walnut Hills community by donating a large canvas painting to Mercy Neighborhood Ministries. The artwork was created by the students with Mercy in mind, focusing on the community members who depend on the charity for food. Sixteen Art-2 students, ranging from sophomores to seniors and guided by art teacher Kurt Nicaise, worked together to learn about the people Mercy serves and plan the project. The process began with a visit from Saint Ursula’s Community Service Learning coordinator, Peggy Platz ’84, who talked to them about the many services Mercy Neighborhood Ministries provides, the people they service as a food pantry, and why and how people get their food there. They also talked about the history of this project and the importance of understanding the services provided by the recipient of the artwork in order to create a meaningful and impactful piece of art. Then the actual painting began. The large canvas was divided into eight sections, with the students working in pairs. Each pair contributed to the palette by choosing their unique color, with half choosing a warm color and half choosing a cool color. The students tested their chosen palette on the computer ﬁ rst to see how the colors would relate. Then, the student pairs painted the solid background colors

in their assigned area and then established their unique individual marks for the base layer. Students invited other girls to paint their unique mark in other areas. Also incorporated fruits and vegetables over the top of the base layer in more intense colors on top in proportionate sizes. This added the theme to the artwork that will hang in or near the food pantry at Mercy. The entire active painting process took just under two weeks. The process they followed helped the girls learn to work collaboratively as a team and come to concensus, a skill that is critical as they move forward in school and beyond. Students who created the artwork for Mercy include: ❚ Hailey Baca of Anderson Twp. ❚ Eugenia Campos of Montgomery ❚ Cecilia Decurtins of North Avondale ❚ Makiya Finley of Green Twp. ❚ Rachel Hartness of Loveland ❚ Louisa Hummel of Mt. Lookout ❚ Caitlyn Hyland of West Chester ❚ Lauren Kauﬀ man of Miami Heights ❚ Lillian Krueger of Madeira ❚ Hannah Lesko of Bridgetown ❚ Audrey Oehler of Anderson Twp. ❚ Elizabeth Pendergast of Montgomery ❚ Macaira Pucci of Anderson Twp. ❚ Marion Reilly of Sharonville ❚ Elizabeth Summers of Miami Heights ❚ Riley Wagner of Hyde Park “It’s part of the school’s mission to educate students who are committed to building a better world.” Said Saint Ursula Academy Principal Dr. Mari Thomas. “That means taking each subject to a deeper level. As in this example, the student not only learned the art techniques, but they learned about a need and how to make an impact with their artwork.” This is the third year of this community service learning project.
