Art has the power to help students explore who they are, better understand others, and strengthen connections within their school community.
In this episode, The Creativity Department talks with Barbara Libby-Steinmann and Anna Rochester about how one creative idea inspired a school- and community-wide initiative centered on identity, empathy, and shared experiences. They discuss practical ways educators can create meaningful opportunities for students to reflect, express themselves, and engage in respectful conversations through art.
