About Us
When we discovered that schools in our area needed art programs, we combined our teaching, art & design, science, and technology backgrounds to create an integrated art curriculum.
After receiving a Master of Arts in Curriculum and Instruction and a 2023 California Exemplary Arts Education award for our art curriculum, our lessons have been showcased at National Art Education Association conferences. They are offered as part of Dixon Ticonderoga's art education program. We continue to create videos and digitally based art lesson plans here on TPT to support teachers in providing quality art education to their students. Our teaching experience is in K - 5, and our goal is to educate students while keeping them happy and challenged.
