Testimonials
"Amanda truly integrates art into academics. This art mural has impacted our students, staff and school community."
"My name is Jayla, I am 9 years old. I made a bird sculpture, a Northern Cardinal. It was very hard to make. It was the most challenging thing I did all summer. I haven’t worked with this much clay before. My art is normally written on paper. The most challenging thing was trying."
