Faculty and graduate students of Art Education at the Lamar Dodd School of Art are traveling to Boston for the National Art Education Association (NAEA) Convention from March 14 - March 17. Founded in 1947, the National Art Education Association is the leading professional membership organization exclusively for visual arts educators.

The NAEA National Convention is an annual event providing substantive professional development services that include the advancement of knowledge in all sessions, events, and activities for the purpose of improving visual arts instruction in American schools. As such, it is the world’s largest art education convention.

The Lamar Dodd School of Art has several faculty and graduate students speaking at the convention. This includes Christina Hanawalt who was recently elected as Division Director-Elect of Higher Education of the NAEA.

 

There will also be an Alumni Reception at the Summer Shack in Boston to coincide with the 2019 NAEA National Convention. Network with fellow alums and connect with Dodd professors and faculty in a laid back atmosphere with food and drinks!
