We are pleased to introduce our Summer Intern, Bailey Sheggeby. You will find Bailey helping with our youth education and community outreach programs this summer. She will be leading our Art Kids Drop In Day Sessions, guiding kid artists in two of our youth summer studio classes (Garden Party and Creative Station), and helping our other teaching artists. If you spot Bailey out and about at one of our Make and Take Creative Stations be sure to stop by and say, “HI!”.
Bailey Sheggeby was born and raised in Hutchinson Minnesota. She is studying psychology and art at Prescott College with plans of eventually becoming an art therapist. Art education matters to Bailey because it is important children are able to express themselves, build understanding of others, and convey messages to influence the world around them. Through teaching during this internship, she is creating a safe space that does exactly that. She wants children to have a creative outlet that allows expression though an array of media rather than simply verbal articulation. The arts matter to Bailey because it is a powerful tool that facilitates healing, learning, growth, and inspiration.
