Union City Elementary Art on the National Level!

I was honored to be asked by Dr. Judith Simpson and professor Diana Hampe of Boston University College of Fine arts to present the place based units that I designed and taught at UC elem. Today's presentation was fantastic! Megan Leary-Crist, a colleague and fellow graduate of BU, co-presented with me about her community based high school units implemented in Newton, a suburb of Boston. Our units are published on the National art education association website archives, where they will remain. I am so very proud of my union city students and their hard work during the "creating a sense of place" mural project! See the blog post from August 2012 for more information about this project.
