REACHING OUT/REACHING IN Celebrating Fine Art Faculty of the South Orange/Maplewood School District

Artists who are also educators is the focus in this exhibition. Many of the South Orange/Maplewood school district's art faculties are professional, exhibiting artists in their own right. What they bring to the classroom based on their own personal artistic experiences and explorations is what makes the SOMA school district distinctive and strong in all the arts. This is an exhibition of their professional art work.
