First Friday Art Rush - Visual Voices Gallery

We have as our guest artist, Connie Burket.
She entered the professional workforce as an arts educator in 1986, serving for five years as Education Director for Salina Arts & Humanities and for twenty years as Director of the Kansas Alliance for Arts Education. She is motivated by a strong belief that every child should have access to the creative, cultural, cognitive, and community-building benefits of art, music, dance, and drama. Connie’s work includes drawing and painting in a variety of media, collage, handmade books, textiles, and 3-dimensional constructions. She enjoys and appreciates the problem-solving aspects of making both design-based and idea-based art and likes to experiment with a wide variety of techniques and processes.
The artist will speak about her work at 5 PM.
Refreshments and treats to be served.
