My blog began 8/08/08 in aTi (Artist/Teacher Institute) & highlights my re-ignited passion for art. When completed, it will include more of my paintings; poetry etc. creative writings; + creative movement choreographies & other dances stemming from those aTi experiences, my artistic family roots,... It's also a testament to the love of my family & value of art therapy. See, I won these art scholarships out of need for healing...So... begin by reading from right...
I've been nominated & selected by aTi instructors as 1 of 9 fellows!
I'm so happy and honored!!! The director of aTi informed me last month that I've been selected for this year-long program in which I will meet regularly with the other award-winners so we can produce a product to be used throughout NJ teaching best practices for integrating the arts into teaching! When I get time, I'll post the whole congratulatory letter here so stay tuned! This award is something new started this year and it caught me totally by surprise to be so honored right after I mailed off my Geraldine Dodge Teacher fellowship application!!! There weren't even any applications for this one!

congratulations on your distinction! I'm sure it's well deserved.
Thanks a lot Sophia. I'm sure you'll earn many yourself!
My apologies "NewWorldOrder." I thought you were someone who I'd just told about my blog until I saw your photo, that is! You're the 1st stranger I know of who has read it. Thanks very much for what you wrote. How did you find out about my blog?
