The eXpressions Art Program is an educational program that engages high school students in the world of scientific research through the visual arts. Through project-based, peer-to-peer learning, students produce artistic representations of research conducted by Cleveland Clinic summer interns. Karen DeMauro and Christina Stouffer are the students' art teachers.
