The ArtMOBIL educator position through the New Bedford Art Museum was a great opportunity to bring the arts to housing and parks in the New Bedford area. Stopping at 10 locations a week, I was able to connect with the commuity through the voice of art. Creating and developing lessons collabortively with a team of educators, we were able to prep and give out over 900 lessons and material packets to children from the ages of 2-16. Traveling across New Bedford in the purple ArtMOBIL was a great opportunity to implement the knowledge ive aquired through my bachelors in Art Education. 

The Learning Studio Assistant role I took on through the New Bedford Art Museum was a afterschool program they created for a local New Bedford apartment housing complex. Where neighborhood children from age 6-12 could join us in a story and a creative activity following it each week.
