Former Coshocton art teacher to host
showcase of former students
COSHOCTON - Myrtle Beall taught art at Coshocton
High School for 34 years, retiring in 2018. Highly
regarded and much appreciated by the community, it
was no surprise that the Pomerene Center of the Arts
approached Beall to do a retirement show. She instead
suggested a showcase featuring the collective works
of her former students, a desire she had long-held and
one that speaks to her supportive nature.
Beall discovered her love of art at the age of three.
Anything and everything provided endless opportuni-
ties to be creative: Coloring books, molding clay, paper
dolls fashioned from photographs within the Sears
catalogue. Encouraged by a family whose members
had their own artistic abilities, Beall fl ourished in the
loving and welcoming world that art provided.
At the suggestion of her own high school art teacher,
Beall began to entertain the idea of becoming an art
teacher herself. Once that vision became a reality, her
youthful art experiences deeply infl uenced her teach-
ing philosophy. It was made clear to her ‘kids’ (she
Proud to serve the people of
Coshocton and surrounding
communities since 1896!

rarely called them students) that her classroom was a
safe place to explore and grow. It was ok to be playful,
it was ok to make messes and mistakes, it was ok to ask
what if and why? Not only was it ok, it was encouraged.
Like all great teachers, the main goal of Beall was
not simply to create artists, but to develop the whole
person. Someone who could solve problems, take risks,
accept challenges. Someone who could work well with
others and never stopped being creative. Her lessons
incorporated these important understandings and she
developed starter topics around them. At one point,
a few students began to refer them as ‘Beallisms’ and
from that, a show was born.
On Saturday, April 27, the Pomerene Center of the
Arts will pay tribute to this inspirational and infl u-
ential teacher. Th e Art of Beallism is an alumni show
featuring the works of Beall’s former ‘kids’. Festivities
begin at 6:30 p.m. Th ere is no admission price, al-
though donations are appreciated.
