How do arts educators remain relevant in today’s society? Perhaps the answer can be found by contemplating the relationships between perception and vision, passion and reason, and anticipation and validation. When fueled with the “Go for it!” factor, these three relationships can bring focus to what really matters. In this workshop, participants will explore undeniable evidence of the priceless work fine arts educators do each day and how every instructor can weave that truth into their professional lives.
