Groff Exhibition Educators' and Jurors' Reception

In addition to showcasing the talent and creative achievement of the young artists exhibiting in the 2015 Groff Exhibition, the exhibition also serves as a professional development project for visual arts educators in accordance with CAEA - SD Chapter's mission to enhance and improve visual arts education throughout San Diego county.

CAEA - SD Chapter would like to invite educators to a special Educators and Jurors Reception at which teachers can interact with the jurors and each other in the discussion of best practices, curriculum and collaboration, all aimed at continually raising the bar for visual arts education in our community.

The Groff Educators Reception will be held on June 1, 2017 at the City Gallery at San Diego City College from 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm.
Afterwards, participants can socialize at the Hive Sushi Lounge across the street from City Gallery.  Please join us for an evening of camaraderie.
