Great program, and like Dina, I really do feel hopeful for these kids who are into art, and who can also learn the business part of that world. Thank you so much for featuring this cool school and sharing all the photos and links.Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05017577882203582185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1067046564433930606.post-83468654636459239232009-11-10T18:20:57.921-08:002009-11-10T18:20:57.921-08:00I believe this whole Room 13 thing began in Scotla...I believe this whole Room 13 thing began in Scotland, Lynn.

It was after I took it that I found the Room 13 USA website, with a photo of a different angle on the same shelf of paints.

I'm sure we all had teachers that meant a lot to us--maybe we didn't know it at the time.<br /><br />Stef, you can mentor without making it a full-time commitment. Artists from The Simpsons and other animators have stopped by for a day or two to share their talents. Check out the website and maybe you can contribute! They would love you!<br /><br />This year's Room 13 group is doing portrait photography. They took photos of each other that just vibrate with personality. They're going to market their services to other schools for annual school portraits. I'd buy them if I were a parent. I'd much prefer a photo of my real kid over the combed hair, fake smiles and creepy blue backdrop of the typical school portrait.Petrea Burchardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13043950465171821852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1067046564433930606.post-697437739908658922009-11-10T09:54:13.692-08:002009-11-10T09:54:13.692-08:00My all time favorite art teacher was Mr Cohantz at...My all time favorite art teacher was Mr Cohantz at Wilson Jr. High School here in Glendale...he encouraged me and made me stretch my talents. Some time after I had been in college I learned that he had committed suicide...during class he told us that he had been on one of the ships that was bombed during Pearl Harbor...one of my regrets in life is that before he passed away, I never went back to Wilson to tell him what a wonderful teacher he was and how he touched my artistic soul...Thank you Mr. CohantzTheChieftesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00153059825142977202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1067046564433930606.post-82136290707767287062009-11-10T09:28:48.169-08:002009-11-10T09:28:48.169-08:00Aaaaaaaaah!
