Introducing the 2016 Summer ‘ART ED NOW’ Conference!

There’s something about this time of year that feels so rejuvenating. After Spring Break, the final push to summer is on! It’s the perfect time to start thinking about how you’re going to spend your time and how you can invest in yourself and your career.

Today, we’re proud to launch our 7th National Online Conference for art educators, and it’s getting a fresh new look! Introducing ART ED NOW.

Mark your calendars for Thursday, July 14th, 2016! We already have an amazing line-up of presenters announced, and there are many more to come.

“Art Ed Now”

If you’ve attended these events in the past, you’re probably wondering, “Why the name change?” One of the most common questions we get about upcoming conferences is “What will the theme be?”

Our vision for this event has always been a bit different. We’ve always covered the biggest, brightest, most up-and-coming ideas in art ed regardless of a central theme. Therefore, the “theme” was whatever was new and important, whatever was NOW in the world of art ed! “Art Ed Now” is all about showcasing the best and brightest that the field of Art Ed has to offer at this very moment!

The more things change… the more they stay the same.

Although the look is different, everything you’ve come to love about the event will remain the same. Like our past online conferences, the event will be bursting with innovative, practical presentations that cover all aspects of art ed. You’ll experience 20+ hand-picked, incredibly relevant presentations that each come with valuable handouts and downloads. This way, you can take what you learn and apply it directly to your classroom right away!
