The Sky's the Limit

This past weekend I attended the annual Georgia Art Educators' Association fall conference.  I spent time with some amazing art educator friends who I love dearly.  I am so blessed to have them in my life - professionally and personally.

I attended some great workshops and learned a lot for my classroom.  I also presented a Kindergarten unit I taught last year.  We relaxed and played a bit, too.  There will be some interesting stories from the weekend - mainly about my talking, laughing, and screaming in my sleep!  Sorry, ladies!  I apologize for waking you up!

The highlight of the trip was the opportunity to pick up and drop off the keynote speaker, Olivia Gude, from the airport.  She is a professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago and community artist who works to promote creativity and comprehensive curriculum for art education.  I have read her work and been inspired by her for years.  She is amazing - down to earth, thoughtful, and delightfully conversational.  It was such an honor to get to spend time with her!  Learn more about her here!
