State of Bee-ing

Picture

Artist Statement

For this piece, I worked alongside grades 6-9 students and discussed how work evolves as we create. We talked about colony collapse disease among bees and the importance of bees and other insects in ecosystems. This introduced students to activism through art via participation in Students ReBuild’s Extraordinary Earth Project.

Charity Brown

I am a practicing artist, art educator, and mom. I work in the Edmonton School Board District and believe that children should have access to authentic art experiences and materials. My work with my own children and with my school community is not just about products, but learning to see the world through the eyes of an artist.
