The NAEA Convention in New York is now a memory but, a very full, mindboggling one. Between sessions we were able to blitz seven museums and galleries, all of which emphasized the need to return and see what we missed.

Highlights of the convention were capped by meeting the new Executive Director, Dr. Deborah Reeve, who will be taking over the late Tom Hatfield’s position in June. She is dynamic, intelligent, and has the right connections at higher levels of government. Her inaugural address was in the same tempo as our committee work focusing on: professional learning, community building, advocacy, and research and knowledge. Delegates and directors alike seemed to be of one mind concerning needs and goals for the future of the organization.

The second highlight was Dan Pink’s general session. He is a vital, enthusiastic speaker. He advocates reaching the legislator’s to make the most dramatic changes in education. His book, A Whole New Mind, is a must read – filled with powerful advocacy fodder. I even sent a copy to my superintendent. In it, he “charts the rise of right-brain thinking in modern economies…” linking the need for more right brain education to the economic future of the 21st century.

Old friendships were rekindled, new ones sparked, and a thrilling time was had by all. Coming home was a rest. We are

now planning for the summer leadership meeting in Fairbanks, Alaska. While it seems a remote place for a meeting, there is a strong organization in the state that supports their delegates to travel to all the other locations for meetings. They are so thrilled that we will be coming their way this time.

We have long talked about a highly visible, identifiable image. Our new pins are all that. They arrived as I was leaving for the convention so three of us were wearing them. Strangers stopped and asked about them on the street, in coffee shops, and throughout the conference. Delegates all wanted one. However, at this time, they are for the membership only. The area presidents have them as does Treasurer, Jane Leese, for $5.00. They have a military back appropriate for men or women as a lapel pin, tie tack, hat decoration, or whatever your creativity demands.

Please remember we are still trying to get the 45-60 recipes necessary to print the cookbook. Please send your black and white illustrated recipes on 8 1/2 by 11-inch paper to me.

Hope your year is winding down with a modicum of distraction. All of which leads to a restful summer with time to peruse the offerings at the State Conference. Remember to sign up early in order to be eligible for a drawing for a free master class. (See page 26 for details)

Having recently returned from the 2007 National Art Education Association convention in New York City, I continue to have a better understanding of the enormous responsibility we all have as members of CAEA. I went as a delegate from California along with Penny Venola and I continue to learn about the national organization as well as our own state association. I was so proud that California did have a YAM flag to represent us and felt our huge effort to create that flag was extremely well received. I would like to continue the efforts and once more conduct a contest for students to submit their own original drawings depicting California and the importance of the learning about Youth Art.

Youth Art Month’s purposes are:1. To direct attention to the value of art education which develops divergent and critical thinking; multicultural awareness; and technical, communication, and expressive skills. 2. To increase community, business and governmental support for art education. 3. To recognize art is a necessity for the full development of better quality life for all people. 4. To expand art programs in schools and stimulate new ones. 5. To increase community understanding and interest in art and art education through involvement in art exhibits, workshops, and other creative venues. 6. To provide additional opportunities for individuals of all ages to participate in creative art learning. 7. To encourage commitment to the arts by students, community organizations, and individuals everywhere. 8. To recognize art education as a viable component in the total education curricula that develops citizens of a global society. 9. To reflect and demonstrate the goals of the National Art Education Association that work toward the improvement of art education at all levels.

The artwork for submissions will be from students of current members of CAEA and can be of any medium and as creative as possible. Each student that enters the contest will receive a certificate of participation and 14 winners will be selected for a quilt-like effect of the flag. Winning entries will receive a prize and recognition in the Painted Monkey. All entries will be returned to the students. The deadline for submission is July 1, 2007. All entries will need to be sent to me. Please see the entry form in this issue for submission.

CAEA members can also go to the website of Idyllwild Arts and take advantage of art courses offered to adults. This is an excellent place to go to rejuvenate your creative talents and experience a wonderful environment. If you are a current member you will receive a 10% discount when signing up for art courses. Here is the website to check out:

Greetings All,

I hope every thing is going well as we wind down and look toward the end of another school year. If you are like me, you can’t believe that another year has flown by. Some of us will even be finishing up the school year this month, again, hard to believe. It seems like just yesterday that we were getting ready for the state conference in Fresno and here it is May. Board meetings, conference meetings, meet and greets, a lot of things with the word meet in it, have all come and gone. We had the county YAM shows and our area show in April at the Corona Heritage Museum. All a huge success, lots of entries and some really nice pieces were showcased. We awarded scholarships to some very deserving and talented young minds. And, finally, the most important ingredient in a successful year, working with your fellow members to better art education, getting the word out to others who may not know about this great organization or it’s purpose, and finally, just to be able to associate with a great group of people.

As I sit here at my desk amongst my piles of things to do, (much larger than they were in September – aren’t they supposed to get smaller?) it strikes me that there is still so much to accomplish in the short time remaining. Actually, it is a never-ending circle of things to do. As one year ends, another begins. And with it, old tasks are carried over and new ones come to light. Our area is hosting the state conference in Pasadena. It will be in November, which with the way this year flew by, is really not that far away. Co-chairs Jane Leese and Susan Wuerer are doing a fantastic job, but they can use more help. Another job, getting information out to the membership: Do you feel connected? We have been sending out an area newsletter, please give us some feed back. I have been trying to email southern area members with current information, is it enough, are you getting the emails? If not, let me know. My job is to strengthen our membership and our area. Let me know how I can do it better.

OK, so here it is, your area needs help. I will need to recruit county liaisons, a YAM chair, and sadly a newsletter editor, as Susan Wuerer is stepping down to devote her time to the area conference and other pursuits. I know you are all saying to yourselves, “How can I get involved and become a part of the process?” Well here is your chance. Come to an area meeting, get involved with the conference, or make an appearance at the next meet and greet. Get to know your leaders, your fellow members, and most importantly, become acquainted with the California Art Education Association and all of the great benefits it has to offer. I’ll be waiting for your feedback, concerns, your name because you just volunteered, a snappy comeback... OK, you get the idea. Let me hear from you, I’ll be sitting right here, waiting. Seriously, I’m not moving, I want to hear from you. Pick up the phone, sign onto your computer, drop me a line... Get involved!

Area News FROM YOURAREA PRESIDENTS

Greetings from Northern Area! I hope this finds you all winding down the school year and getting ready for a much needed summer break!

Wow! Youth Art Month in the Northern Area was an incredible experience! The theme “Art Helps a Child Bloom” was evident in every celebration and event held in the Northern Area. I want to take this opportunity to thank our Co-chairs Kevin Ohama and Janet Applegate for doing an outstanding job with Youth Art Month. Our past chair Carol Piskoti did a wonderful job with the transition to our new chairs.

There were many Youth Art Month shows and exhibitions all over the Northern Area. In a perfect world, I would be able to travel all over the Northern Area and attend all of the events our folks host. I was fortunate enough, however, to attend three of the main events which were held in the Sacramento Area. I would like to take this opportunity to join in the celebration of these events and thank everyone who participated in Youth Art Month. These shows and events are wonderful ways to promote Art Education and the fantastic programs and opportunities that we offer our students.

The Crocker Art Museum once again hosted an exhibition and reception for our student artwork. I would like to extend a special thank you to Caren Guiterez for coordinating the event and Christian Adame for hanging the show. The show ran from February 12th through April 2nd, 2007. The reception was held on Sunday, March 18th from 11:00 am until 1:00 pm. Representatives from Chalk It Up presented awards to several students. It was attended by over 100 students, family members, teachers and community members.

The Pence Gallery in Davis was a first time host to the CAEA Youth Art Month student exhibit and reception. Special thanks go to Natalie Nelson for coordinating the event. Kevin Ohama and his father hung the show. The exhibit ran from March 7th through April 15th, 2007. The reception was held March 11th from 1:00 pm until 3:00 pm. It was attended by over 75 students, family members, teachers and community members.

The Sacramento County Office of Education also continued the long tradition of celebrating Youth Art Month. Maureen Gemma coordinated the event and hosted the reception. She also hung the event and was the Master of Ceremonies at the reception. There was a lovely reception which was held on March 18th from 5:00 to 6:00 pm. Chalk It Up presented awards to several students. The event was attended by over 75 students, family members, teachers, school board members and community members.

Looking ahead… in 2008, the state conference will be held in Burlingame. We are in the beginning stages of forming the conference committee. There are many opportunities to lead and serve on the committee. Please let me know if you are able to chair or work on one of the many sub-committees. Also, the 2007 conference will be in Pasadena this year. Register early to ensure your spot! See you in Pasadena!

Area News FROM YOURAREA PRESIDENTS

The Central Area has a new President Elect! Rita Torres has taken on the position. Rita is a teacher at South High here in Bakersfield and has been active with CAEA, serving on the board as the Bakersfield representative, and giving workshops at local conferences. This leaves her former position as Bakersfield representative open. Representatives attend area meetings three times a year and help to disseminate information in the Bakersfield area. If you would like to represent Bakersfield at the area meetings, please let me know.

The Winter Conference was a great success. We had 38 teachers from many different levels and backgrounds attend. Participants were given eight art lesson plans and three hands on workshops. Everyone raved about the quality and content of the workshops and was excited about going back to their sites to teach what they had learned. Art Sherwyn gave a short lecture on “Finding the Flow: Creating a classroom environment that is conducive to great art and interaction”. This too was well-received, with many comments on how inspiring his message was. I would like to thank, Mark Brown, Barrie Burnham, Lori Kramer, Michelle Sanchez-St. Andre, Katie Squire, Craig Tomlinson, and Rita Torres for presenting. Thank you to everyone who helped to put together and run the conference, and Art for his words of inspiration. Without all of you, these wonderful opportunities for sharing would not exist.

The next Area Conference will be on September 15th, in Fresno. Rita Torres will be chairing the conference and is looking for presenters and volunteers. If you would like to present a workshop or help with the conference, please email her at [email protected]. or, me at [email protected].

The Panorama Students Art Show at Bakersfield College was a wonderful event. Many of the areas high schools participated with high quality work that was displayed in the Wylie and May Louise Jones Gallery. The reception was well-attended and enjoyed by all. Thanks to Fran Reynolds and Margaret Nowling for giving our students this great opportunity to display their work.

The Southern area is hosting the State Conference this year in Pasadena and it promises to be one of the best. There will be a digital, administrative and elementary strand this year and the committee has booked some interesting masters classes, (one of which Sandy Skoglund will be presenting). She will also be one of the keynote speakers. Don’t miss this great opportunity to improve your teaching and have fun. With extra money from the state, your school my be able to pay for the conference this year- just ask!

The next Central Area Council meeting will be on Saturday, June 9th, in Bakersfield, from 10:00am to 2:00 pm. All members are welcomed to attend. Please contact me for location and directions.

Look for info about the CENTRAL AREA FALL VISUAL ARTS CONFERENCE 2007 in the next Painted Monkey. The event is in Fresno on September 15.

Update On The California Arts Project (TCAP)

By Carol Lockwood, TCAP [email protected]

The central mission of the California Arts Project (TCAP) is to deepen teachers’ knowledge of the visual arts, dance, music and theatre and to enhance instructional strategies for teaching these four disciplines to California’s students, pre-kindergarten through post-secondary. Of the nine discipline-specific California Subject Matter Projects (CSMP) established by SB 1882, TCAP serves the Visual and Performing Arts and offers a variety of professional development opportunities to carry out this mission.

The Advisory Board met at the Mission Inn in March and approved the program and budget for the 5 sites offering summer institutes: Cal State, Chico; San Jose State; University of the Pacific; San Diego State and Cal State, San Bernadino. A new site director is to be announced shortly for SNAP (Sierra North Arts Project) at the University of California at Davis. Summer events at all sites are being planned. Go to the TCAP website www.tcap.net for information and downloadable applications.

CAEA is very fortunate to have TCAP presenting the Elementary Strand at the November Conference this year. Not to be missed, It will be very inspirational. For more information on the Elementary Strand, see page 19.

Statewide Study ofArts Educationin CaliforniaBy Cris Guenter, Ed.D., CAEA, Past [email protected]

On March 6, 2007 the Scientific Research Institute (SRI) report, An Unfinished Canvas, Arts Education in California: Taking Stock of Policies and Practices, was published. SRI International is an independent, nonprofit research institute located in Menlo Park, CA. It conducts client-sponsored research and development for government agencies, commercial businesses, foundations, and other organizations. This research project, supported by the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation with additional support from the Ford Foundation, targeted a statewide study of current practices of arts education in California.

Overall the study found that “the vast majority of California’s schools fail to meet state standards set in 2001 for teaching visual arts, music, dance, and theater, and access to arts instruction varies widely among the state’s schools.” We know that because we deal with the issues and frustrations of this situation daily, but now there is data to support this knowing.

SRI describes the research as an “18-month study, which will conclude in June 2007, includes a policy and literature review to provide context for the survey, a statewide survey of 1,800 California school principals to measure key characteristics of arts education, case studies of 33 schools in 9 districts to provide an in-depth and historical understanding of how education in the arts is funded and provided in California schools, and secondary analyses of statewide databases for information on the teacher workforce and students’ course-taking over time.”

“This research is believed to be the first study to examine systematically the status of arts education in California. The study found that 89 percent of California schools fail to offer a standards-based course of study in all four disciplines – falling short of state goals – and 29 percent do not offer a standards-based course of study in any of the four disciplines. In addition, more than half (61 percent) of California schools do not have a full-time equivalent arts specialist. Students lag behind the national average in hours of arts instruction – up to 50 percent less in music and visual arts instruction at the elementary level. Moreover, standards alignment, assessment, and accountability practices are uneven in arts education and often not present at all.”

This study with its literature review, supporting data, and documentation can certainly help to better inform policymakers and arts education funders about the status of arts education in California and offer substance for you as you build rationales for the arts at your school site. Your may not have the time or interest to read every research report that comes down the pike, but if you are reading these words in the Painted Monkey, then you should take the time to review the summary or full report which are available online as pdfs at our CAEA website under Advocacy and at http://www.sri.com/policy/cep/edreform/ArtsEd.html#reports.

Information as of 3-27-07

$105 million Arts and Music Block Grant

1. On-going funding allocated to school districts/charters/county offices of education programs based upon school enrollment data; 75% payment was made early January based upon 2005-2006 school enrollment data with the remaining 25% anticipated to be paid out late June, 2007 based upon 2006-2007 school enrollment data.

2. Schools with 20 or fewer students will provide the district with $2,500 contribution to the district warrant.

3. Schools with 21 or more students will provide the district with no less than $4,000 contribution to the district warrant.

4. This apportionment turned out to be $15.94 per pupil when School Fiscal Services completed computation of the data.

5. There is no deadline for spending this money; however, state funds not spent or encumbered revert as of July 1, 2009.

6. There is no direction of the proportion of funds that need to be provided dance, music, theatre and/or visual arts.

7. It is hoped there is collaborative decision making among district administration, principals, department chairs and teachers of dance, music, theatre and visual arts.

8. These funds are to supplement, not supplant expenditures for dance, music, theatre and visual arts.

9. These funds are for kindergarten, and grades one to twelve inclusive.

10. There are three basic uses of these funds:

A) Professional development for generalist teachers (content and sequential standards-based learning instruction), for single subject teachers of dance, music, theatre and visual arts (sequential standards-based learning units of instruction - here’s the opportunity to

have teachers take long used units and morph them to sequential standards-base instructional learning) and administrators.

B) Hiring credentialed NLCB compliant teachers of dance, music, theatre and visual arts or a coordinator for Visual and Performing Arts.

C) Acquisition of sequential standards-based learning instruction supplies, books and equipment.

11. Listing of apportionments may be found at www.cde.ca.gov/fg/aa/ca

4. There is no deadline for spending this money; however, state funds not spent or encumbered revert July 1, 2009.

5. There is no direction as to the proportion of fund distribution for dance, music, theatre, visual arts or physical education.

7. These funds are for kindergarten and grades one to twelve inclusive.

8. These funds are for 10 A) and 10 C) as noted above for the $105 million.

9. Listing of apportionments will be posted to the CDE website when the letters have been sent out to county superintendents as occurred for the $105 million.

_________________________________________________________

* Professional development includes: generalist training (content plus learning to deliver sequential standards-basedinstruction), singles subject dance, music, theatre and visual arts (and physical education) training (here these individuals need to work on instruction to sequential standards-based learning for the four arts and to standards-base learning for physical education); evaluating district arts education plans; up-dating or writing district arts education plans; writing of curriculum (as textbooks support the curriculum but are not the curriculum; curriculum is developed around the standards). If a district has a structured professional development plan that includes year-long collaborative participation, they may consider conferences within the larger professional development package; if there is no constructed larger plan, conferences in and of themselves are not considered professional development (see NCLB guidelines on professional development).

* The % a district may take may be found at www.cde.ca.gov/fg/ac/ic. It is that percentage and no more. Some districts are electing to not take a percentage to further the opportunities for professional development and the like for their district.

* If a district utilized Instructional Materials funds for books, those must be state adopted texts (2006 adoptions for K-8 vocal music, visual arts and theatre); book purchased with $105M/$500M funds need not be state adopted texts.

* Supplies and equipment do not include buses for transportation or tickets for performances or the hiring of outside people to deliver the instruction (since California requires that credentialed teachers deliver instruction and in the case of the four arts, they need to be NCLB compliant credentialed teachers) or fees to enter competitions or festivals, dues to a group, participation fees or the like. Supplies are quickly consumed or have short life span; equipment is anything one plugs in, class sets of items, instruments, items of larger value. Supplies and equipment are portable, they are not permanent items so that precludes a new all weather track, new floor in the dance studio (though a portable or Marley floor would be okay) as they are improvement of site, school facility or building expenditures since they would be attached to the land, nailed down, screwed/bolted in/on, concreted in and are now part of the permanent school structure or in permanent form and are not supplies or equipment.

With the money from the $105 million having had its 75% disbursement accomplished in January (and the remaining 25% anticipated to be disbursed late June), districts, charters and county office programs are beginning to work on wise use and leveraging of funds. Many many many districts are taking the opportunity to evaluate their district programs and then update or write 3-6 year arts education plans. There is a beginning of professional development for elementary teachers and the opportunity for single subject teachers to rewrite their units of study so they become sequential standards-based learning units of instruction that include formative and summative assessment. Equipment and supplies are then purchased that align to the sequential standards-based learning instruction. This is wonderful to hear about. With the monies from the $500 million one-time fund anticipated to be disbursed late April/early May, that will allow for districts to continue the work as discussed above. What a wonderful time for arts education in California. Now we need to work with our legislators to have the $109,242,000 remain in the 2007-2008 state budget for dance, music, theatre and visual arts (that is the on-going $105 million that was in the 2006-2007 budget, but with a COLA raise). Legislation is being worked on at this time to address accountability, the name visual and performing arts rather than arts and music and a few other tweaks.

YOUTH ART MONTH

www.caea-arteducation.org Since 1965California Art Education Association

Wrapping Up This Year’sYouth Art Month EventsBy Marilyn Martin, YAM [email protected]

Painted Monkey articles are submitted a month before the issue date, which means many of you are ending your YAM shows as I write this. I find the shows always take a lot of work and time, but they are also always worth the effort. I hope you have found the same to be true.

California art educators are slowly becoming more visible. At the NAEA conference held in NYC this past March, California had its FIRST Youth Art Month flag on display, along with the other participating states. Each year, the state report I send to the Council for Art Education is looking a little better, as more teachers submit a report describing what he/she did to support our youth during YAM. We can do better, though. Last year, I received reports from teachers representing only 13 of our 58 counties. I know we are collectively doing much more than I can show, simply because I don’t have the data to prove it.

So, before you “wrap it up” until next year, please take that last step and send me a report of your show and/or other YAM activities. In order to make it easier on you, I have typed up an abbreviated report form. This form is not meant for the large county and area shows. I cannot add the abbreviated report directly into the state report, and it won’t be eligible for a YAM award at the annual CAEA conference. But it will take less time to fill out, and I can use the data in the state report. I believe it will help me show a truer picture of how many of us are participating in Youth Art Month. You will find the abbreviated report form, the “regular” report form, and an informational guide to putting on and reporting a YAM show at our website (www.caea-arteducation.org). Once you are at the home page, click on PROGRAMS. Then click onto YOUTH ART MONTH. You will find your area YAM contact information there as well. I will also gladly send the report forms to you as an attachment, so you can type directly onto the document.

The postmark deadline for reports is June 1st, 2007. Send your reports to your area YAM chair, or to me (see contact infor-mation on next page). If you have any questions, feel free to contact myself or your area YAM chair. And, as always, thank you for your dedication to your students and art education.

YAM Flag ContestCAEA is conducting a contest for students to submit their own original drawings depicting California landmarks and landscapes. The artwork for submissions will be from students of current members of CAEA and can be of any medium and as creative as possible. Each student that enters the contest will receive a certificate of participation and 14 winners will be selected for a quilt-like effect of the flag. Winning entries will receive a prize and recognition in the Painted Monkey. All entries will be returned to the students.

The deadline for submission is July 1, 2007.

John Hughes is president and founder of Rhythm & Hues Studios, (www.rhythm.com), one the world’s leading producers of computer generated animation and visual effects for entertainment and advertising.

Following a stint at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, John ventured west to Los Angeles, joining the pioneering motion graphics firm Robert Abel and Associates, where he designed and developed motion control camera systems, paving the way for some of the first use of computer generated imagery (CGI) in feature films and commercials.

Anticipating the wide acceptance of digitally created media, John and a small group of former Abel employees founded Rhythm & Hues Studios in 1987. They developed proprietary software which quickly established a high standard for both photo-real and stylized character animation and visual effects. By 1995, the studio earned an Academy Award® for Achievement in Visual Effects for its work on the movie “Babe.” More recently, Rhythm & Hues was nominated for the 2005 Visual Effects Oscar® for producing Aslan the lion and the numerous mythical creatures which inhabit the world of “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe,” and contributed to the success of the Oscar winning “Happy Feet.” Recognized as a leading innovator in its field, Rhythm

& Hues has more than 100 feature films and hundreds of commercials to its credit and is the recipient of two Scientific and Technical Academy Awards.

In addition to his role at Rhythm & Hues, John is committed to improving education for California students. He currently serves as Chairman of the Education Committee for the Digital Coast Roundtable, and Chair of the Digital Coast Foundation, serves on the Boards of Directors for the Entertainment Economy Institute, a ten-year old initiative to respond to the current and future workforce needs of all segments of the entertainment industry, and the Workforce Investment Board, a collaboration between government and private industry which oversees all federal and state training funding for the City of Los Angeles. Previously, John was a member of the California Superintendent of School’s Task Force for the Visual and Performing Arts, and a Board Member of the California Alliance for Arts Education.

Under John’s guidance, Rhythm & Hues encourages future generations of artists through its community outreach programs by offering scholarships, internships and apprenticeships to promising students, as well as tours of the facility open to attendees from around the world.

One of the most collected figurative bronze sculptors at work today, Richard MacDonald has achieved this stature through a consuming passion for his work and an unrelenting dedication to its quality and integrity. A native Californian, MacDonald was educated at the prestigious Art Center College of Design and received a Bachelor of Professional Arts, Cum Laude.

His fascination with the human figure and human emotions has led MacDonald to focus on sculpting figures of mimes, dancers and athletes, each of which conveys a sense of joy and pays tribute to the beauty of the human form. In the 30 years of his artistic career, MacDonald has achieved international distinction for his sculpture, paintings, and drawings, and is the recipient of many national and international awards. He has also held numerous one-man shows and exhibitions throughout the United States, Europe and the Orient. “His

work is collected by such people as former U.S. President Bill Clinton and Senator Hillary Clinton, Linda and Stewart Resnick, William Payne, Dean Koontz, Richard Marx, Leann Rimes, and opera legend Luciano Pavarotti.”

MacDonald ” works tirelessly to increase the appreciation and understanding of figurative art throughout the world” and “graciously gives of his art and his time to hundreds of charitable organizations; among those Boys and Girls Clubs of America, Make a Wish Foundation, and New York’s ‘Free Arts for Abused Children.’” His commitment to figurative art extends to his role as mentor to “international and national professional artists through intensive master classes on location at his own 25,000 square-foot studio complex. As he passes the torch, he ensures his legacy.”

Sandy Skoglund, renowned conceptual artist and photographer, will be this year’s Keynote Speaker at Sunday’s Award’s Breakfast on Sunday, November 18 and will conduct a special Featured Artist Class on Saturday, November 17 for 40 lucky participants. Sandy Skoglund’s work has been “described as an ‘antic dream world of ordinary life gone awry.’ ” For example, Revenge of the Goldfish is a photograph of a room that has three-dimensional bright orange goldfish that are suspended in space throughout a monochromatically painted intense blue bedroom. Not only do they leisurely float through the space above the bedroom furniture, but the fish emerge from the dresser drawers, dip into a lamp, lie on the sheets of the bed, and drift across the surface of the floor. All this takes place while a real woman peacefully sleeps and a man sits on the side of the bed as though just waking. In another work entitled, The Cocktail Party, she explores the idea of snacks by completely covering an entire room including the floor, furniture, posed manikins and the clothing of live models with cheese doodles. Skoglund’s surrealistic images utilize a variety of media including clay, paint, food, and real furniture and objects that are glued and arranged in room installations that often include real people. The whole installation is finally photographed capturing the Surrealistic dreamlike moment. Skoglund is a strong advocate of art education and currently teaches photography and art installation/multimedia at Rutgers University in New Jersey. Her work can be found in many museum, corporate, and personal collections throughout the United States and internationally.

Administrative StrandArts Education and Learning: Right Thinking!November 16, 2007

The Administrative Strand is presented each year by the California Arts Education Association at their annual conference to address specific needs of school and district administration. This day-long workshop is customized to present the latest research and useful information in arts education. This day will provide administrators with an increased knowledge of the role of the arts in brain development as well as practical research-based solutions to arts programming.

Featured speakers include:

What Educational Leaders Need to Know About the Brain, the Arts, Learning and Memory will be presented by Diane Watanabe, Ed.D., Los Angeles County Office of Education. The explosion of brain research in the last two decades has implications for learning, memory and the arts. In an enriched environment the brain changes as it learns. From brain research we discover/confirm that learning can soar. The attributes of an enriched environment will be explored; practical classroom strategies for learning and memory development will be modeled; images of the brain as it functions and brain cells, as it grows, will be presented.

Interdisciplinary Use of Music in Mathematics Instruction will be presented by Dr. Matthew Peterson, of UC Berkeley and The Mind Institute. Matthew will speak about the use of music in mathematical instruction. The reason students have difficulty with math instruction is that it is presented linguistically. When presented visually, the way the brain naturally learns mathematics, student achievement soars. Matthew will demonstrate the interdisciplinary use of music to prime special-temporal reasoning and support student success in mathematics learning.

The Art and Reading Together Project: Creating Meaningful Literacy Links will be an elementary level presentation of the successful integration of all four arts disciplines into the Open Court reading series, presented by Maureen Gemma, Sacramento County Office of Education.

Project RAISE: Reading and Arts Integrated for Student Excellence demonstrating integration of theatre and visual arts into reading and writing instruction for middle school students, will be presented by Nancy Andrzejczak, Lake Elsinore Unified School District.

Arts Core: Literacy in the Visual and Performing Arts in the Secondary School will be presented by Jim Thomas, Orange County Department of Education.

In addition, you will receive the latest updates on block grant funding and statewide initiatives in the arts from Nancy Carr, Visual and Performing Arts Consultant, California Department of Education.

Arts Education and Learning: Right Thinking is a must for superintendents, curriculum and instruction, and school-site administrators supporting district efforts to establish, extend and expand arts programming for all students. Register early! Space is limited! For further information contact Nancy Carr at [email protected], Jim Thomas at [email protected] , or Conference Co-Chair Susan Wuerer at [email protected].

Ink Investigations: Lines, Values, and Textures (#250)Friday Nov. 16, 8:30am–11:30am | Dr. Cris Guenter

As a media, ink offers choices for expressing ideas and feelings in different circumstances. Drawing with ink brings you back to the basics. You must commit to the marks you make on the paper. This Master Class will explore: 1) the power of an ink line in its many variations, 2) ink washes, and 3) ink textures for value rendering and for visual effects. Specific techniques for using both pen and brush with ink will be addressed. Standards-based alignment for ink lessons in visual art and integrated with other subjects will be discussed.

Getting Mugged...is just the beginning! (#251)Friday Nov. 16, 8:30am–11:30am | Christopher Daren Webb

A stamped slab mug will be the starting point for a creative exploration of clay hand building techniques. Using various easy to make or find, slump and hump molds, a simple slab mug can be transformed. What might start out as a simple cylindrical shape can become quite something else, even a teapot. Christopher will share several handle making techniques as well as additive and subtractive techniques that will enhance the design and form of each clay vessel. Each participant will receive CD of numerous PowerPoint clay lessons, ready for use in the classroom.

Materials fee payable to the instructor $10.00

Freeze and Fuse (#256)Friday Nov. 16, 8:30am–11:30am | Nancy Oudegeest

Create pate-de-verre art in cheap candy molds? Fuse glass at low temperatures? Make 3D sculptures on a flat kiln shelf with incredible detail? In this class, you will learn how to make pastes from commercial glass pow-ders. You will mold glass powders in inexpensive and readily available plastic molds, using the “Freeze-n-Fuse” method. You will also learn to make your own flexible molds from found objects, and explore the use of safe liquid binders that allow you to form glass as a 3D paste.

“It’s all possible! Six thousand years ago, the ancient Egyptians produced beautiful translucent works made of a mysterious material called “djenet”. This incredible paste could be molded like clay, cold worked like a solid, and fired to produce a beautiful glass. Items made of it were prized as much as gold and gems. Now, the secrets of the ancients are rediscovered and combined with modern materials!” Paul Kimble.

Hands-On Monotype Printmaking (#350)Saturday Nov. 17, 8:30am–11:30am | Katherine Venturelli

Monotype is a direct and painterly printmaking process that allows both novices and experienced artists of all ages to create finished images in relatively few steps. For children and adults, the monotype process is a delight because it fulfills one’s need for playful experimentation, spontaneity, and surprise. In a hands-on experience, workshop participants will develop an understanding of fundamental monotype printmaking terms, materi-als and techniques. Utilizing non-toxic materials (water-based inks), you will create a unique art print with or without a printmaking press. Demonstrations cover: single run, chine colle, “ghost” imagery, and experimenta-tion with texture and collaging materials. Handouts available for classroom adaptation, “how-to,” material list/resources, vocabulary and history, lesson plan ideas…etc.

Ms. Venturelli creates unique and limited edition artist books from her etchings and monotypes. Her awarding winning work is in many international and U.S. collections and she has been an art instructor and lecturer for the past 30 years.
