Register now for the Adding Voices Conference:
Adding Voices creates conferences and workshops that are intentionally committed to equity, social justice, and inclusion in teaching, learning, and building community for art educators who are Black, Brown or part of the Global Majority.
The purpose of the conferences is to provide a safe space for leadership and professional development for art educators.
Adding Voices aims to equip art educators at every level–from pre-service teachers to higher ed, administrators to board members–with knowledge and skills in liberatory practices, centering anti-bias and anti-racist frameworks in art education.
While affinity spaces within larger art education conferences exist, Adding Voices is the only national event that explicitly centers the experiences and expertise of art educators who identify as Black, Brown, Indigenous, or part of the Global Majority, while prioritizing the need for anti-racist and culturally responsive practices at every level of education.

I have not updated this in awhile, however I have photographic work in two online shows currently (2/1/21)
For more nature check out: Citizen’s Eye The Schuylkill Center presents Citizen’s Eye — A Kaleidoscope of Nature, a communal photo album of nature encounters featuring over 400 images taken during the last 9 months of the COVID-19 pandemic. Asking how has nature been a part of your life in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, the Schuylkill Center invited its community to share their favorite photographs of surprising encounters with nature and to become part of a kaleidoscopic display in its art gallery and on its website.

A Vision Board Workshop with Sarah KolkerSaturday, April 16th 1pm-3:30pm
Vision boards, also called inspiration boards or dream boards, are creative visualization tools made of collaged pictures, words and quotes that both:
- clarify and illustrate goals
and
- use focused visualization to increase the likelihood that those goals will be accomplished
Finding images and words that resonate with your goals and dreams and organizing them on a 2d or 3d surface can help get your mind into the perspective of what is possible. We live in a world of changing times. Our well being is threatened by many things – GMOs, oil spills, and dare I say it, global warming. We also live in a world of possibilities and an abundance of junk. If we focus on those things, we live in a really scary time. However, getting stuck in the negative will not help much. What can we do to save ourselves and our home, the Earth? What happens when we turn that “junk” or extra into something useful? We become resourceful.
Space is limited, so call 267.997.0060
or email us at info@theresourceexchange.org to RSVP
