October 22, 2009Workshop: The Inclusive Visual Arts Classroom – by Corda Kinzie

Rachel Spatz
While at the Arts Connect Conference I, and about 20 arts educators had a chance too attend a session with Rachel Spatz.
Those of us who attended her session had a great opportunity to see how to use materials that make it easy to join in an art lesson whether you have a broken hand, a sprained wrist, a physical, motor, learning, communication, or any other disability.
Rachel led us in a hands-on experience of many ways to adapt materials for our students. If you are looking for ideas on how to include every student in your art classes or ways support students who want to join in art projects in general classes, Contact: Rachel Spatz (rspatz@vsartsmaine.org) the Education and Program Director for VSA arts of Maine. She has some great handouts on adaptations for students.
