In Episode 7, we have the privilege to speak with 2018 Global Teacher Prize winner and Arts and Textiles educator Andria Zafirakou who shares with us her passion for arts infused education for all students. 
Andria believes that the visual arts not only provide students a chance to celebrate creativity, but can also be the medium to communication, social emotional learning, and cultural understandings. Her passion to  connect students with Artists in Residences has opened doors for children all over the world.  These professional artists guide students in the creation of new works and provide teachers with classroom embedded professional learning opportunities.
