Episode 70 – The Anti-Racist Art Teachers – Body Image in the Media & Art Room
K-12 art chat wth the Anti-Racist Art Teachers
The Creativity Department is joined by half of the Anti-Racist Art Teacher group for this episode! Body image is something we all struggle with, and it can be reassuring to know you’re not the only one with those feelings, especially as children. The Anti-Racist Art Teachers discuss their struggles with body image when they were students and share ways they help students with body image in the art room today!
