Art educators as 21st century leaders
"To be literate in this day and age, you haveto be creative and be an artist on some
level. We are living in a very dynamic, a veryliterate, and a very aesthetic age, and you
ignore this at your own peril in terms of yourpotential for financial success."
It is time for art to step up andsay, “we are not a content area,
we are about more than self-expression, we are about jobs!”
Jason Ohler, Interview on www.thecreativeeducator.com

"At least once a week 14% of teachers letstudents make something with technology.
63% NEVER do."
Kids want to be making!and not just in art!

to think about and recall knowledge."
Who better to teach visual skillsthan you?
