Taking a look back, a look forward
When Rob Westerberg’s blog post popped into my inbox yesterday I took a break from working and read his post. It proved to be one of those pieces written that causes me to pause and think deeply about the work we’ve done in arts education in Maine for many years. Some of you might know Betty Atterbury, perhaps even had her as a music professor. Like Rob, I never had the opportunity to meet her. After reading about her I imagined meeting this woman who clearly had an impact on Maine arts education. I was mostly interested in the work she did and the parallels to the present work in arts education.
I hope you’ll take a minute to pause and read Rob’s post at http://goobermusicteachers.wordpress.com/2012/08/26/what-would-betty-atterbury-say/ If you knew Betty, I’d love for you to post a comment on the meartsed blog. Thanks!
We have much to be proud and I am humbled by the outstanding work that takes place each day in arts education in Maine!
