Maryland Art Education Association
Yesterday I attended the Maryland Art Education Association Conference. The theme wass Game Changers: Collaboration, Play and the search for New Ideas. The highlight of the conference for me was the Keynote speaker Cindy Foley. She has an amazing TED talk which you can see here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcFRfJb2ONk Notes I took during her speech: Ask yourself: “What is the purpose of art education?” We want to develop learners who develop thier own ideas Books to read:


Drawing Outside
It was a beautiful fall day today, I was wearing a sweater but would have been fine in a T-shirt and I decided I did not want to be inside today. I thought my student might feel the same way. So I took all my classes out to our garden which features beautiful plants maintained by our afterschool programs and a great view of the metro train. What a great day for Art.


Social Media
Photos of my Students and thier self-portraits made it on to our schools Facebook Page today. So Proud of all thier hardwork and excited to promote the great things happening in my art room!
