Alexandra Turner, Teaching Artist

Galleries, commissions, residencies, workshops.



I am a Teaching Artist with over ten years of experience in a wide variety of settings. I hold an M.Ed. from Saint Michael’s College, and a B.A. in Studio Arts from Empire State College. I love making art with children and adults, and offering opportunities for participants to experience the joy, relaxation, and deep learning that comes through the process of artmaking. Currently, I am  engaged in work that combines arts integration, Universal Design for Learning, mindfulness, and collaboration to develop curriculum that engages as many types of learners as possible. In addition, I provide professional development opportunities for early childhood and afterschool professionals, as well as teaching artists on the topic of inclusive arts and arts-based literacy. Raised in the forests of the Finger Lakes region of New York, I am now based in northern Vermont,
