FAEA board of directors ning a great line-up of in-person AND virtual workshops this summer. We will announce the time, dates, and locations soon; so keep an eye out for those announcements. The K-12 Student Art Assessment & Exhibition winners are in this issue. Congratulations to all the winners and thank you to all who submitted artwork this year. The Member Virtual Exhibition opens for entries May 15! Please plan to enter YOUR art this year. We want to see what you are creating and celebrate you! Lastly, I want to mention that our new Board is working on some exciting things that you will hear more about going forward; there are two that I want to mention now: • It is time for FAEA to update the Strategic Plan, work will begin soon on this important initiative. • We will also be working to expand our membership through a membership drive. We will need your help with this; so many of your peer teachers and colleagues don’t know about FAEA and we want to include them in the FAEA. Thank you for your membership in the FAEA, you are the reason we remain a vibrant and meaningful organization. I look forward to the work that we will do together and the road ahead. Enjoy your spring and summer!
