through creativity…

It used to be that you could learn how to express yourself through art in school. With the budget cuts from Federal and State Governments a lot of these programs are phased out. Many are replaced in favor of STEM education. This is good and well, but there’s still a segment of the population that needs a different system of education. They learn and communicate through artistic expression.

Then there are those who are versed in their creative style.  Those who have experience and are looking to share to continue developing their own personal style while inspiring others.  They want to exercise their form of expression, while creating a sustainable environment for others to flourish.

Where can they go? How can they learn? Who can teach them how to master their craft?
