  • Stephen Tyson
    stephenjtyson.com Biography Stephen J. Tyson was born and raised in New York City. He graduated from the High School of Music & Art, attended the Art Students League of New York, the Rhode Island School of Design, earned his BFA from Manhattanville College, and his MFA from the City College of New York. He was tenured as an art teacher with the New York City Board of Education and as an associate professor of studio art and art history at the University of Pittsburgh in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. He has been a fine arts faculty member at Siena College, SUNY-Albany, Union College, SUNY-Adirondack, and he is currently an Instructor of Fine Arts at Schenectady County Community College. In 1988 and 1995, he was awarded Fulbright-Hays Fellowships to study in Nigeria and in Namibia and Botswana, respectively. Those experiences further inspired his interest in pattern design—evident in a series of paintings and drawings he has continued to produce since 1994. He has also drawn inspiration from the field of cellular biology, astronomy, illuminated manuscripts, Australian Aboriginal art, the mural designs of the Kassena in West Africa, digital photography, and music. His illustrations have been featured in science-related publications. His work has been featured at venues such as the New York State Museum, the Schenectady Museum (now miSci), the National Black Fine Art Show (NBFAS) in New York City. His work is part of the collection of the New York Public Library’s Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, the Schenectady Museum (miSci), Hudson Valley Community College, Siena College, and numerous private collections.

  • In This Issue: 4 10 16
    SUMMER 2017 A magazine for alumnae, parents, faculty and friends of Villa Maria Academy VIEWS of EMPOWERING YOUNG WOMEN SINCE 1872VILLA In this Issue: 4 Villa Celebrates Graduation 10Alumnae Luncheon 16 Women & Wine LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR Dear Alumnae and Friends of Villa Maria, It has only been a month or so since we sent another class of young women off to college. The 2016-17 school year was marked by National Merit awards, another state swimming championship, recognition of several All-Catholic musicians, and of course, the graduation of the Class of 2017. Graduation is a bittersweet time. We are so proud of the 107 young women who leave Villa to pursue their college degrees and careers, but it is hard to say good-bye. This class earned 231 merit scholarships that totaled $15.3 million dollars. We are so grateful to their parents for allowing us the privilege of educating their daughters. We also thank all the young women who shared their talents with us over these past four years. The Class of 2017 certainly left their mark on the Villa community. This year also included the continued engagement of our alumnae through regional events, Homecoming and Hall of Fame activities and the alumnae luncheon. Our hope is to continue to bring more and more alumnae and their families back to campus. We are so grateful to all the alumnae who attended events, mentored students, or simply stayed informed by following us on social media. The alumnae are the foundation on which we continue to build the mission of Villa Maria.
