APEX Lecture features Mia Green

ASUMH invites the public to attend an APEX student presentation at noon on Monday, April 28, entitled "Literature in Frames: Storyboarding Pivotal Moments of Short Stories."  The lecture will be held in McMullin Lecture Hall (Dryer Hall 200). The presentation will run approximately 45 minutes to be followed by questions from the audience. A reception will immediately follow in the 2nd floor lobby of Dryer hall. The ASUMH community and Mountain Home community at large are invited to attend.

In her presentation, Mia Green will explore the benefits of storyboarding to showcase major plot points in literature. She will feature three short stories—"A Rose for Emily" by William Faulkner, "Good Country People" by Flannery O’Connor, and "The Gift of the Magi" by O. Henry—and will utilize Kurt Vonnegut’s "The 8 Shapes of Stories" as the foundation for her presentation. Mia will earn her Associate of Arts degree from ASUMH in May 2025, then plans to transfer to UCA to pursue a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in mental health counseling. Mia has been mentored by Dane Hustead, ASUMH’s digital design instructor, who has guided her approach to combining literature and art.
