Each year, about 150 Massachusetts high school juniors are selected to come together for “two days of exploration and collaborative art making with 16 professional artists and mentors” for Art All-State at the Worcester Art Museum. I am so excited to share that both Bob and I were selected to serve as Artist Mentors for this year’s Art All-State in May. I went to All-State as a high school student, and this may sound hokey, but it was one of the greatest weekends of my life. It was the first time I collaborated in the creative process with peers who shared a deep interest in art and making things. This image is of a huge tape mural created by world-renowned tape artist Michael Townsend on the side of the museum during Art All-State 2007. Look for my post about this year’s All- State in June.
