ARTAPALOOZA - What art teachers did!

I just happened across this blog post about a 2-day art event that art teachers put together. It sounds like a lot of fun and something that we can work towards.

Any thoughts on this? Any event coordinators and/or wannabe party planners out there in our LJM community who might be able to volunteer to help put something like this together for next year? It would be amazing and would definitely bring some much needed publicity to the importance of art in our schools.

Got pricelist for cows

I posted yesterday about an idea to do a public art campaign to bring awareness to the importance of art in schools. I heard back from the company I contacted who have the fiberglass cows and other animals.

Wouldn't it be neat if our school campus also had some public art? I can picture awe-inspiring sculptures in our quad, an art cow here and there...
