The Wiregrass Museum of Art in partnership with the Alabama Artistic Literacy Consortium will host a training workshop for artists who currently work in schools, and for those who may wish to.

The workshop will be held at the Wiregrass Museum of Art in downtown Dothan on Saturday, May 14, from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. in the museum’s classrooms.

"The Wiregrass is incredibly lucky to have many passionate and talented artists living in the area," Brook McGinnis, WMA’s education director, said."Imagine if these artists were able to share their gifts and knowledge with area students in a way that enhanced the curriculum and aligned with state standards. This workshop aims to give artists the knowledge and confidence to take their practice into the K-12 classroom and WMA is thrilled to host this incredible opportunity.
