Click here for Septembers Event Calendar Patrick Ching's Artistic Insights: Stay Excited!...pass it on! This is to my fellow artists. (Especially those who teach): Keep learning and teaching art. People want to express themselves creatively. As art teachers you help them do that. During tough economy artists may feel unappreciated. You are so important. People want to feel good about themselves and acquiring new skills such as art allow them to do that. The world will thank you for keeping art important. Remember, we are all teachers, we are all students and we are all artists.
