Alysha Meloche
Alysha Meloche has a Ph.D. from Drexel University’s School of Education. Her research interests include formal and informal art education, creativity and aesthetics in interdisciplinary contexts. Her dissertation explores how knowing the identity of an artist changes the emotions that one experiences while looking at their work, particularly when aspects of identity are shared. She would like to study approaches to art education and the history of art that instil creative confidence and identity in students. Before joining Drexel University, she earned both her BA and MA in art history from Temple University. Her master’s focus was on late antique architecture. She then worked for five years as an adjunct art history and design professor. She wishes to research ways that people are making art and art history education accessible and valuable.
