CRVAEA's annual Art Educator as Artist exhibition is a juried art show. The exhibition encourages art educators to continue to create their own art and to show their work in a professional gallery. It also allows students, family, friends and the general public to experience the artistry of art educators. We are artists who teach. The show will feature drawings, paintings, sculpture, fiber arts, and photography. This year's featured artwork was created by Karen Siler, an elementary art educator from Henrico County Public Schools. During the CRVAEA's Piankatank retreat this past spring, Karen used the Raku process to create Raku Face. Raku Face, as Karen has written, "Demonstrates the struggles art educators go through to be able to create their own work."
