University of Maine Museum of Art
Suzanne Goulet from the Maine Art Education Association awards committee planned a party that celebrated the outstanding work that goes on in visual arts classrooms across the state. Not only did we celebrate good teaching but we had a great time. The event was held at the University of Maine Museum of Art in Bangor Friday, April 5.
Four teachers were recognized for their contributions that spanned the last 3 decades.
- Middle Level Art Educator of the Year: Susan L. Beaulier, Ashland Schools
- Elementary Art Educator of the Year: Cathy Grisby, SAD #61
- Outstanding Service to the Profession: Stephanie Leonard, Bangor Schools
- Maine Art Educator of the Year: Sandy J. Brennan, Wells Schools
In the near future each teacher will have a post dedicated to them so you can learn more about their contributions to Arts education.
A great big thank you to the University of Maine Museum of Art, Director and Curator George Kinghorn and Education Coordinator Eva Wagner for hosting the event! Everyone enjoyed the artwork, the food, and especially the company!
