CREATED BY CHILDREN: Andrea Perkey, an occupational therapy fieldwork coordinator with Eastern Michigan University's Occupational Therapy Program, looks at a collage her son, Cullen (pictured), created for the Children's Art Showcase. The exhibit, which took place in Ford Gallery April 27-May 4, featured the artwork of children enrolled at EMU's Children's Institute. Works included brightly colored paintings and free-form sculptures. A silent auction took place, with all proceeds benefiting the Family Scholarship Fund.
