Episode 159: Be a Creative Changemaker
Laura and Matt GrundlerPaula Liz
Discovering new artists to showcase in our art rooms can be a difficult task, it’s easy to fall into the rut of highlighting the same familiar artists. And they often don’t represent the diverse world of art or that of our students. Luckily, there’s a new resource for elementary grades centered on underrepresented artists from across the world and throughout history! In this episode, The Creativity Department is joined by the author, Paula Liz. Throughout her career, Paula noticed the absence of non-Western artists in courses and instructional materials. In response, she’s written Be a Creative Changemaker: A Kids’ Art Activity Book to help students discover new artists, materials, techniques, and styles.
