Created April 2020
UTRGV College of Fine Arts ARTS 3381 Art Education: Theory and Background students are creating COVID-19 Visual Art Journals on Instagram. They are documenting moments, changes, and challenges in their lives during this pandemic. Some are taking on an activist stance to send out social and health messages. Assistant Professor of Art Education, Christen Sperry García, MFA, PhD teaches ARTS 3381 and has adapted the course for the current online arena.
