Member Portrait: Get to Know Our Vibrant Community!
- Why NAEA matters to Christopher: I value NAEA for three vital reasons: 1. Community: Connect and network within a creative and vibrant learning community. 2. Research: Access cutting-edge research that is occupationally grounding and advocates for visual arts education. 3. Training: Engage diverse professional development opportunities that enhance creative teaching and learning practices.
- Christopher’s tip for art education success: Maxine Greene’s quote, “seeking clarity and authenticity in the face of thoughtfulness,” reminds me that creating and teaching art are relational and spiritual practices grounded in connections and relationships. When we authentically and creatively engage with others, we allow ourselves to embody our truths and model our unique being.
