NATIONAL ART TEACHER APPRECIATION SHOW RECEPTION
Throughout the month of April, Ai New York City's Gallery space was the site of an art exhibition that showcased the work of 21 area high school art teachers. The exhibition was part of a nationwide Art Institutes initiative to show our appreciation for our high school art teachers, while at the same time call the teachers' attention to local Art Institutes and the degree programs each school offers. Ai New York City's exhibition was coordinated by Career Services Director Helen Kogan, Senior Director of Admissions Mary Ann Grillo and curated by faculty member Miguel Martinez. The exhibition will close at the end of this month.
An opening reception for the teachers was held at Ai New York City's Gallery on Thursday, April 19. Fourteen of the 21 teachers exhibiting attended with their guests. The instructors and guests were given a tour of the campus.
