“As an art teacher, I see the kids making the connection…and the brushes start to dance... Returning to what they knew when they were little, and also returning to it fresh. They make breakthroughs—it’s really marvelous to witness their struggles and achievements. It’s quite personal…and collective because they’re doing art all together in a class. You get a dialog going visually and verbally. They help each other.”

Kathleen Burgett, Port Townsend High School Art Teacher
