GAEA Art Blast

July 2023

GAEA PRESIDENT

Greetings good people!

It is my hope you have found some time to relax and restore this summer. As we each begin to make preparations for a new school year, I wanted to present a special edition of the "Art Blast" devoted to our Fall 2023 conference, "Vessels".

Registration is now open and I would encourage members interested in attending to secure spots now as workshops are limited and based on first come, first served. You can pay by credit card or select pay by invoice if your school is helping cover costs.

I am looking forward to seeing you this fall in Columbus!


A special thanks to the 2023 conference team for all their hard work!

  • Dr. Virginia McCullough: Muscogee County School District
  • Mrs. Florence Barnett: Harris County School District
  • Dr. Bret Lefler: Columbus State University
