As the Art Guide at a Montessori Junior High School, I guide adolescent students through a variety of 2D and 3D media projects, with a focus on social justice, self-reflection and mindfulness. I use my background in art therapy as a foundation for my curriculum. Students are given long term projects to plan and build on, with a self-reflective writing at the finish of each piece.
