Another Virginia Art Education Conference has come and gone, and I’ve got a renewed appreciation and love for not just my profession, but for Harrisonburg, Virginia. It’s been a long time since I’ve last been there, and while it’s not nearly as artsy as Richmond (where we had the conference last year), it’s got a genuinely friendly warmth and historic charm, not to mention some amazing places to eat. I didn’t do any workshops or presentations this time around, and preferred instead to check out what other art educators had to offer, much of which was very inspiring - a highlight being artist Steve Prince’s incredibly moving keynote presentation (third photo). My good friend of over thirty years, @emscottart’s “Get To Work” talk was highly motivating as well, and it was so great to watch someone I consider a brother, deliver such an awesome talk. Another highlight was being able to sell lots of my work at the Artisans Market, which I posted about over at @splotchmonsterisland, and meet some wonderful people. I’m so grateful that the organizers of this conference recognize that many of us art teachers are also artists and crafters, and gave us a platform and an opportunity to get our stuff out there in the world. I also found a Greenberry’s Coffee Co, which has a very special, personal significance in that @krisloyaart and I would go to the one that used to be in Leesburg every weekend, when we lived there, and split a blueberry scone between the two of us, over a coffee. Luckily, the one on the JMU campus still serves the exact same, incredible scones, which I made a point to get both Friday and Saturday morning. Anyway, I learned so much and ate too much and had so much fun over the past several days, and it’s hard to believe it’s over already - it all went by way too quickly. Already looking forward to next year’s event! #vaea #vaea2023 #harrisonburg #arteducation #arteducator #artteacher #artteachers #artteachersofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #artistoninstagram #art #harrisonburgva #greenberryscoffee #artteacherlife #dmvartist #loudouncountyartist #loudounart

Day two of the 2022 NAEA conference is a wrap for me, as I managed to pack a lot in this morning, and early afternoon. Seeing three guest artists present was a real highlight today, most notably cartoonist and comics artist Alex Simmons, who was such an inspirational speaker and kind individual. Looking forward to checking out The Whitney museum of art this evening - something I’ve never done, yet. #naea22 #naea #art #arteducator #artist #arteducation #makeart #teachart #nyc #alexsimmons #IngridHess #Mor
