Last night in Trenton, I received The Governor’s Award for Excellence in Art Education along with three other Visual Art Education colleagues from other counties in the state. There we are in a special photo shoot. (L-R: Me, Marge Mayers, Kim Defibaugh, Carrie Russoniello)
I was honored to be included in such esteemed company. There were also thirteen other educators of different disciplines and over eighty students who received awards last night.
It was a pleasant event that praised the education of the visual arts as well as music, theater, dance, poetry and spoken word. There were remarkable performances by students from all around the state who were being recognized for excellence....and excellent they were! As a teacher, I am frequently blown away by what my students create and was in awe of these young artists and performers. They gave me goose bumps.
