Member Portrait: Get to Know Our Vibrant Community!

Why NAEA matters to Ted: I value not only the connectivity that being an NAEA member provides, but also the wealth of resources made available, as well as the advocacy for the visual arts on a national level.
Ted’s tip for art education success: The concepts and skills that comprise the basic foundations of the visual arts are applicable to success in any field, and they allow one to approach problem solving from multiple angles. Art is meant to be challenging, to force us to think about the way we think.
