At the annual convention of the National Art Education Association 2016, I was grateful to receive the Carrie Nordlund Award in PK-12 Feminist Pedagogy from the NAEA Women’s Caucus. Deep appreciation for the women with whom I shared the awards evening: Michelle Bae-Dimitriadis received the Mary J. Rouse Award; Pamela Taylor received the Kathy Connors Teaching Award; Debbie Smith-Shank received the June King McFee Award; Read M. Diket received the Maryl Fletcher de Jong Service Award.

NAEA Curriculum Slam
It was exciting to be part of the Curriculum Slam highlighting my students' work titled "Women Raising Voices Against Violence" The Slam was led by Olivia Gude with "DJ-Jamey- James Rees" and Lydia Ross of the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago who did an amazing job curating the whole event with her teacher's advisory board! Thrilled to be a co-slammer with Jake Myers, Miriam Dolnick, Ryan Guillard-Patton, Charles Garoian, Justin Clumpner, Laura Boban, Kris Derek Hechevarria, and Rochele Royster.
