In this photo taken on Friday, Sept. 18, Patrick Donmoyer, 23, stands at the door of a barn decorated with a Pennsylvania German star, located at the Pennsylvania German Cultural Heritage Center where he works at Kutztown University in Kutztown. Donmoyer is using a $5,000 research scholarship from the Peter Wentz Farmstead Society, of Worcester, to catalog the celestial folk art decorations on area barns, which many call "hex signs" due to fictitious folklore used to attract tourists during the early 20th century.
