Episode 144: Building a Culture of Community
The presence of “community” in activities such as band and theater is obvious. These require groups of individuals to work together. That type of connection may look absent from the studio. However, in the art room students can express themselves openly and have a sense of belonging. That’s exactly the environment Brice McCasland creates in his art room. Brice is the K12 Visual Art Coordinator for Lovejoy ISD in Texas and went to college with Matt & Laura. Their art professors created a welcoming, supportive, and inspiring creative community which they’ve emulated in their own art rooms! In this episode, Brice shares his strategies for building a community of artistic culture in the art room. Listen in and discover the positive and lasting impact it can have on students.
