The 2014 SDS AWARDS
Fabricated on location at the iMET (using the “3D printer” at that location), this year’s Student Show awards will be unveiled at the RECEPTION on April 15th. For those curious should, here is a sneak peak (without spoiling the surprise).
GTC “KEYCOCK” at the NAACC
Gateway Technical College Graphic Comm student Greg Kirstein collaborated with fellow graphic student Steven Samuelson and welding student Joe Felgenhauer to produce the work “KEYCOCK,” which was exhibited at the National American Association of Community Colleges’ national Workforce Development Institute held in St. Petersburg, Fla. Jan. 29-Feb. 1.
Photos of the piece were also displayed at The Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida.
The artist’s concept was to use keys received from across the Gateway District (Racine, Kenosha, and Elkhorn) to symbolize the keys to a proud and bright future. A video helping to document the process appears on YouTube (see below) as well as a newspaper article in the Kenosha News.

This year’s STUDENT DESIGN SHOW will be held at a new venue: the S.C. Johnson iMET Center in Sturtevant, Wisconsin. Conveniently located east of Interstate 94 between Highways 11 and 20, the center is conveniently located between the various student populations.
The facilities home for Gateway Technical College’s Engineering Programs, Development Incubators, Manufacturing Technologies, and 3d Printing/Fabrications Labs, the S.C. Johnson iMET center is yet another of Gateway Technical College’s state of the art showcase pieces.
