K12ArtChat the Podcast

In this episode, Matt and Laura talk with returning guest James Rees! Advocacy outside of the classroom and real-world experiences for students are important. One of the best resources for both of these things could be down the street at your local art gallery or museum. Involving students in the production process of exhibiting their artwork is a meaningful way to make your program visible and build critical skills for students, even if they don’t go on to work in the field of art. Listen in to hear how James facilitates student art shows at his local galleries and the benefits that come from doing so.
