In 2005, Noblesville High School said goodbye to its National Art Honor Society (NAHS) sponsor, Kate Vasey. With the farewell of NAHS’s sponsor came the farewell of NAHS as a whole. 3D Art teacher Kayti Hahn decided it was time to get the ball rolling again when her 12 students from the Learning Showcase Performance installation piece wanted an organized group instead of the few of them getting together to do something nonchalant. Hahn has been doing much of the outside work for art classes and decided she would take the role of sponsor for the club.
