Lafayette artists are learning about the power of the arts to transmit joy, transform sorrow, change minds, and heal hearts! In Lafayette’s art studio classroom we are not only learning about the elements, principles and media of the visual arts, but are using the arts to gain a greater understanding, depth and richness of language arts, math, science and social studies curricula. We are hoping learning in and through the arts at Lafayette nurtures lifelong learners and creators!

Summer Creations By Your Art Teacher

After a 30 year hiatus, I spent 6 weeks this summer at Glen Echo in the pottery yurt throwing pots. It was delightfully "centering"- both calming and inspirational to be one of many ceramic artists exploring their craft in a myriad of ways.
