Baldwin Art Teacher, Socorrito Diaz awarded summer fellowship at the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC

We proudly announce that the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. has granted Mrs. Socorrito Diaz, and her Korean colleague Andy Yeonsung Lee, a fellowship to attend this year’s Summer Teacher Institute. The Teacher Institute is a six-day seminar that helps K–12 teachers (of all subjects) strengthen their knowledge of art history while integrating visual art into classroom teaching. The program features lectures, gallery tours, teaching strategies, and hands-on learning experiences. After working together in the Art Exchange Program, they will be able to meet, study, and prepare a yearlong curriculum of activities under this year’s theme: French Impressionism and Post-Impressionism.
