COURSE DESCRIPTION
If you teach art or if you use art almost every day in your classroom,
then this course is for you. Each one of us learns art everyday, but not
all of us have the good fortune of knowing that art isn't just in a curriculum,
"art is HOW you live your life everyday". This course is for all of us who
have decided ART MATTERS and those of us who want to learn how to
live with our own and other's imaginations.
