Megan Moriarty oversees marketing and communication for the Humanities Institute (HI) and its affiliated centers and working groups. This involves publicizing the many events, lectures, film screenings and community gatherings that the HI hosts every semester. Megan also works on community outreach and engagement, event planning and overseeing the Institute's exhibitions of material culture. 

With a master's degree in art education from OSU's Department of Art Administration, Education and Policy, Megan strives to stay connected to the arts in the university and the greater Columbus community. Megan designs and implements monthly HI Makerspace events in 198 Hagerty Hall. These free, drop-in art studio events offer projects and materials in a variety of media, with self-led projects reflecting the content and interests of the HI's centers and affiliates. Megan is interested in the science behind creativity, as well as visual thinking strategies, artful thinking, design thinking and studio thinking.

Her work can be found in the Ohio Craft Museum, at handmade art fairs and in other galleries and gift shops around Columbus.
