Cross Pollination Opening at Tyler

If you live in Philly you know that taking advantage of First Friday is the super easy way to see what other artists are making and get inspired. We’re all stoked that this year’s conference corresponds with First Friday, and today I’ll highlight one opening that we (as art teachers) can be really excited about!

Cross Pollination

Cross Pollination is opening at Tyler school of Art and will feature the work of art educators and their students! The reception (with treats) is October 7th from 5-7. So scoot on out from your last session and head to Tyler to catch this show!

The show is curated (and installed) by Marie Elcin, a Philly art teacher (who will also be presenting at PAEA) who’s involved with all sorts of awesome projects. The show will feature photographs, book art, textiles and more from thirteen educators (including yours truly!) and their students, highlighting the dialog between teachers’ and students’ work.
