About the Author

Alecia Eggers Kaczmarek

Hello! My name is Alecia Eggers-Kaczmarek and I teach K-6 elementary art in a large district in central Iowa.  I am passionate about teaching and reaching my students. I see myself as a facilitator of artistic experiences, creative skill building, and assisting students in the development of their artistic identities.  It is my philosophy and mission to provide my students with a well rounded, innovative, fun, and meaningful arts education.

When I am not in the art room, I am spending time with family and friends, crafting, practicing yoga, baking, and endlessly organizing.  I love finding inspiration and being inspired by the arts and fellow art educators.  I am so excited to be a part of the AOE team and embark on this continuous journey of learning, sharing, and innovation!
