Artist Resident for Pegasus program
Boys and Girls Clubs of America
Feb 2010 - Mar 2011 (1 year 1 month)
I ran 3 classes a week for the Pegasus after-school art program. The ages range from 6 to 16 and projects can be as simple as learning how to observe a still life using color pencils to painting over unwanted graffiti on a picnic table. Most importantly, I aim to engage minds and inspire them to take the creativity they use with me into their own lives.
In November, I began to take over the duties of the Director. I helped acquire new artists and expand the program for the new year. I continued to work as the unofficial Director until March when I left for Japan (that had been planned since the previous August) and the new Director that I had helped acquire took over the position.
