During a staff development day at Frontier Central last month we had the pleasure of a presentation by docent Karen Lesinski and members of the staff from the Burchfield Penney Art Center: Mary Kozub, Tullis Johnson and Alana Ryder. They shared information about Burchfield's life, the evolution of his work and his amazing portrayal of weather. We also learned a great deal about the Center itself, how to navigate the website with its wealth of resources and the many benefits for students and our curriculum. Each segment was shared with knowledge and a passion by the presenters that was contagious. What a wonderful way to end our year as teachers with a new depth of knowledge and fresh ideas, rejuvenating us as teachers/artists.
