About Art Teachers' Art

The Event

Rick Pantele, founder of the IncredibleArtist.Com Gallery, and Louisa Castrodale, Palm Springs Unified School District Visual & Performing Arts Specialist, came up with the idea of creating an art show specifically for teachers within the district. PSUSD encompasses 5 cities, 25 school sites and over 24,000 students.

Within the teaching community, there are many talented artists who put kids first, and their own art aspirations second, and gladly so.  Pantele and Castrodale wanted to create an opportunity to shine the spotlight on the teacher’s talents for their students, student’s families, other staff members of PSUSD and the larger community.

In partnership with David Hill, General Manager of the Hyatt Regency Suites Palm Springs, they will be presenting the exhibition ArtTeachers’Art on Feb 10th, 2009, from 5 to 8 pm in the lobby space of the Hyatt.  All are welcome to come and celebrate the art created by the talented teachers that are educating our young people, the artists of tomorrow!
