A note from HATs!:

“We are incredibly honored and excited to be a part of THAT. We represent a cohort of Hunterdon County High School Art Teachers. It goes without saying that THAT’s mission is at the core of what we try to do every day in the classroom… cultivate awareness and recognition for and of the arts. We believe that being a good teacher is an art form in and of itself. But each of us is dedicated to being a teaching artist. We are potters, painters, sculptures, and photographers. We question, explore, interpret, and sometimes just make. Our art informs our teaching in a way that no textbook can. We are busy people and we struggle to make time for our art. The inclusion of our art in this show is a celebration of all the hard work we do to stay artistically connected and committed to the process. We thank THAT for their work and their support of our programs.”

This group exhibition will feature the work of Sarah Ruppert, Jason Farnsworth, Vincent D’amico, Christina Grodkiewicz, Laura Pellegrino,  Katie Piro, Robin Rudy and Marissa Sozio.

 

About Hunterdon Art Museum:

The Hunterdon Art Museum engages people with contemporary art, craft, and design in ways that educate, challenge, and inspire.

Through the arts, we express ourselves, explore ideas, and cultivate critical thinking and problem-solving.

 
Art has the power to motivate us and turn thinking into doing, fueling innovation and
leading to fresh ideas, scientific breakthroughs, and technological improvements.
 
Art challenges us to reflect on ourselves and our society as a whole, while helping us think
about new ideas, confront problems, and consider possibilities.
 
In the midst of tragedy, art helps us heal, and it can also help us celebrate and
commemorate. Art can have a purpose in and of itself; it can inspire, bring joy, or give solace.Hunterdon Art Museum will be an inclusive and essential community resource that fosters transformative experiences and enriches the lives of everyone through contemporary art exhibitions and programming.
