Testimonials
Reagan Williams, a high school physics teacher at Lift for Life Academy, apprenticed for ArtWorks in 1995. Her former Girl Scout leader recommended she try the program, and even though she hadn’t heard of it, she thought it sounded interesting.  
 
Now Reagan looks back on her experience with great affection. “ArtWorks afforded me my first real job. I interacted with professional artists, and I met others from diverse backgrounds. It taught me "real-life” skills like navigating public transportation, budgeting my finances and time management. By teaching and fostering these skills, ArtWorks ultimately helped me achieve my professional goals.  As a science teacher now, I need an abstract and meticulous eye for detail. I learned that from ArtWorks through all manner of medium, and now I help my students see how intimately the arts and sciences relate. The artistic principles as well as interpersonal skills I learned during my ArtWorks experience help me be a more well-rounded instructor.
