President’s REFLECTION
Dear FAEA Members,
I hope this letter finds you energized and ready to dive into the exciting opportunities ahead with FAEA! The past few months have been nothing short of incredible, and they've solidified my WHY for our organization: it's all about the people.
We've accomplished so much together recently. From successfully hosting our first mini summer PD in a long time to witnessing the incredible strength of our Member Virtual Exhibition, it's evident that our community is thriving. The progress of the Fine Arts Seal, our representation at national events like the National Conference and the AP Art and Design reading in Salt Lake, is a testament to the dedication and passion of our members.
In line with our Strategic Plan's goal of Organizational Vibrance, I encourage each of you to actively participate in decision-making and leadership opportunities within our organization. Your ideas and contributions are invaluable in shaping our future. Together, let's continue to foster fair, impartial, sustainable, and supportive practices that empower every member.
As we gear up for our upcoming conference, there's much to be done to ensure its success. I invite you all to reach out and offer your help. Our keynote speakers promise to be outstanding, and we have a plethora of wonderful experiences lined up for you to choose from.
Let's seize this opportunity to come together, learn from one another, and celebrate our shared passion for visual arts education. Together, we can achieve greatness. Lastly, with the joy of our beautiful state comes the challenge of the storms. To those who can, please donate to the FAEA relief fund. Every little bit counts when you are in need.
Thank you for your unwavering support and dedication. I can't wait to see what we'll accomplish together next!
TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER!

Elementary School Division Director
Stephanie Scannapieco Seabreeze Elementary Duval County
I’m so excited! Conference is just around the corner and the board has been working so hard to make this the best conference yet!
Conference is one of my favorite weekends of the school year. My first few years teaching, I didn’t attend because money was tight. After a few years, I was fortunate enough that my local association helped pay for my conference expenses and from then on, I was hooked! There was no stopping me, I was going to conference because it was a game changer for my professional development but also for the collaboration and community I felt among like-minded art educators. The majority of the year we’re alone. Unlike other subject areas, we don’t have people to common plan with on a weekly basis. This conference is that common planning time that you’ve been missing out on. Especially if you’re a new teacher, come. If you know any new teachers, invite them! They may not even know that conference exists to help them. I understand that times are tough financially for a lot of people right now, but there are some avenues to help pay for conference if that is what’s stopping you. The Advocacy Committee has even put together language for you to use to help you request with your ask. Ask your principals, ask your PTAs, ask your local associations. The worst that can happen is they say no.
I want to encourage you to do a few things when you attend conference. First, join me for our elementary division meeting. I want to share with you all the things going on and I’d love to hear from you. What are your needs? How can FAEA better support and serve you? Secondly, if you haven’t already signed up for one, consider taking a paid workshop or two. Those are hands on, and I find that I get the most out of doing, plus you make examples to take back to your classroom.
You’re going to see some new things, including something called Artful Happenings. Have you ever had downtime between workshops and wanted to finish something up? Or work on something in your own medium? These artful happenings will be a place for that, for sharing and collaborating, for engaging with other art teachers and networking. Another feature of conference I’d love to see you participate in is the Ignite Magic Market. I am so ecstatic to see this event come
together. What was formerly known as the Bazaar and Gala will be combined to make an arts market where you can buy, sell, and make art while socializing and having fun! It’s going to be incredible!
Finally, I encourage you to do what we do best as art teachers and show off how amazing our students are! The K-12 Student Art Assessment & Virtual Exhibition has undergone a name change. It will now be known as the FAEA Florida Student Art Assessment and it is an opportunity for your students to showcase their art and truly shine. How awesome would it be to celebrate not only your students but the work being done in your programs. Submissions will be accepted beginning October 17 and remain open until February 9, 2025. You can find rubrics, awards, and more information about this at faea.org.
I truly look forward to seeing you all at conference. If I don’t know you yet, please come introduce yourself. I want to get to know all my fellow art teachers. See you there!

It’s time to get excited for the 2024 FAEA Conference! Registration is now open. Our conference theme is, “Ignite Imagination: Reveal the Fantastical.” We are excited to be having our conference in Saint Petersburg at the Hilton Bayfront. Make sure to register, you will not want to miss the Conference and all the exciting artful happenings we have planned!
Ignite your imagination this October by signing up for some of our amazing sessions/workshops and reveal your fantastic creations.
If you are interested in learning more about what your Local Art Education Associations can do for you, or if you are curious of how to start one, please come join us at our LAEA meeting that will be held on Saturday, October 19 at 11:30am. It is a wonderful place to share information and show your support to others across the state.
I can’t wait to see and meet everyone this October!

Hello Amazing Middle School Art Teachers!
I can’t believe how quickly the start of the year has flown by. As the conference approaches, please feel free to reach out with any questions or needs. We, your division directors, are here to serve you.
As the holidays approach, I enjoy planning my lessons accordingly. This past year, I had the opportunity to run my Art & STEAM camp, attend digital art training, and visit family in New York. I hope you also have the chance to rest, enjoy, and refill your cup with whatever brings you joy during the holiday season!
This summer, we offered a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) camp at my middle school, Gamble Rogers. We had both an art section and a robotics section. Along with talented teachers Justin Thorton, Jennifer Kinnaman, and Julie Penn, I am thrilled to announce our second annual Art & STEAM camp for middle school students.
In my STEAM class, students created drawings and paintings, learned digital art and tablet drawing, and built a 3D letter. We explored famous architecture from around the world, focusing on a different wonder each day—from the Taj Mahal to the Great Wall of China. Students built digital 3D structures and 3D printed their designs, gaining a solid background in the art of architecture. Additionally, they learned basic sewing skills, created visual journals guided by prompts, and worked with robotics and coding. It was a fantastic summer session and a wonderful way to refill my cup!
To all my veteran and new teachers, I invite you to sign up for the conference and connect with as many teachers as possible. We are a wealth of knowledge, and sharing is caring. I can’t tell you what a lifeline it was for me as a new teacher.
As you continue the start of the new academic year, if you haven’t already joined or renewed your FAEA membership, I
Division Updates
suggest you do so ASAP. There is a letter of support attached to the last Division Update that can be presented to your principal or PTO to cover your membership.
Finally, I hope to see you at the FAEA conference in October in St. Petersburg. Best wishes for a fantastic school year! Until we meet again, keep creating “Art from the Heart!”

In the not-too-distant future, it will be that time of year again when we will meet for the FAEA Conference in beautiful St. Petersburg, FL, from October 17th to 20th. There are many exciting events, workshops, forums, museum visits, and much more planned for this conference.
I will be encouraging all of my pre-service students to join FAEA and attend, since, as we all know, this is one of the very best ways for future teachers to connect with other art educators. They also gain many new concepts, insights, and ideas to use in their future art classrooms. Two sessions are dedicated especially to pre-service teachers: they are highly encouraged to attend the Future Art Educator Forum on Friday and the Big Giveaway for New Teachers on Saturday.
I am looking forward to seeing you at the Higher Education Division Meeting on Friday, October 18th from 3:30 to 4:30.

Hello Art & Cultural Organization Educators! I can’t believe summer went by so quickly! It is hard to believe we are starting a new school year already. I know many of you had a busy summer of camps and programming, but I hope that you have had some time to recharge.
I always enjoy the start of the school year; full of new ideas, goals, and partnerships. With the passing of the Florida Seal of Fine Arts and now activated, your organization has the opportunity to help support students in earning this distinction. As part of the requirements, students will need to complete at least 25 hours of art-related volunteer hours. Be proactive and reach out to the arts supervisor in your district to see how you can support this initiative.
Conference is just around the corner! We are looking forward to our first of four years in St. Petersburg. Thank you for submitting proposals earlier this year. There are going to be many opportunities to engage with, learn from, and inspire others. Make sure to note our division meeting time when the schedule comes out. It will be great to connect with one another. See you in St. Pete!

Artful Happenings Room at FAEA Conference
Step into the “Artful Happenings Room”, a dynamic and immersive space inspired by Allan Kaprow’s historic Happenings and your requests. This isn’t your typical session. It’s a vibrant, creative hub you’ve always dreamed of—designed for ongoing learning, meaningful discussions, sharing best practices, spontaneous collaborations, and more.
In this unique room, you’ll find scheduled meetups hosted by experts, each centered around specific topics. It’s the perfect place to:
Connect with Like-Minded Artists
Meet fellow creatives who share your passions and interests for a particular topic and share. Stop by to paint on the collaborative Advocacy Mural hosted by Laura Hobby and Natalie Potacco which will later be used for photo opportunities during the conference.
Continue the Conversation
Many people have started an exciting conversation with an attendee in a session and suddenly you have to leave so the next session can begin. Check out the schedule and meet up to dive deeper into the ideas and techniques that inspire you like Journaling hosted by Ashley Demaio or Printmaking hosted by Sara Black and Karissa Herb.
Finish Working on a Project From a Session
Sometimes you just need a space to keep working on and talking about the thing that got you so excited like Fabric and Fibers hosted by Laurie Hoppock and Jacquelene Lieberman.
Collaborate and Create
Engage in group experiences like "Creativi-tea and Mindfulness" led by Lark Keeler, sponta-
neous performances like Dance and Yoga with Erik Nordstrom and Christy Sylla, or simply enjoy the creative energy of working side by side while while attending a drawing session hosted by Gerald Obregon.
Socialize and Network

FAEA Keynote Speaker TONY DITERLIZZI
#1 New York Times bestselling author and illustrator, Tony DiTerlizzi, has been creating children’s books for over twenty years. From fanciful picture books like The Broken Ornament and The Spider & The Fly (a Caldecott Honor book), to chapter books like Kenny and The Dragon and The Search for WondLa, DiTerlizzi imbues his stories with rich imagination. With American writer and editor Holly Black, he created the middle-grade series, The Spiderwick Chronicles, which has sold over 20 million copies, been adapted into a feature film, and translated in over thirty countries. He teamed up with Lucasfilm to retell the original Star Wars trilogy as a picture book and his collaboration with celebrated author Mo Willems created the bestseller The Story of Diva & Flea. The Norman Rockwell museum’s retrospective, “Never Abandon Imagination”, featured artwork from the beginning of DiTerlizzi’s career as a contributing artist for Dungeons & Dragons and broke attendance records. He has been featured in Time magazine, USA Today, CNN, PBS, NPR, the BBC, and The Today Show.
