Hello, my name is Terry Walkowski. I teach art, Kindergarten readiness through eighth grade. This fall I began team teaching Pre-K 3 two mornings a week. Their eager, smiling little faces make me realize there is hope for a bright tomorrow.
I received my BS degree in Art Education and my MS in Art Therapy. I am currently a Registered Art Therapist.
I feel fortunate to have been a part of the faith filled community that is Southtowns Catholic School and Saint John Paul II Parish for 15 years. Having attended Catholic Schools myself grade 1 through 12, I have the honor of bringing that faith and knowledge into my classroom. I am passionate about the visual arts and it is my intent to facilitate each student’s success to their highest level. The creative problem solving that takes place in an art lesson generalizes into preparation for real life experiences. Mastery of techniques and media are explored in a developmentally appropriate progression, with an art history component.
I am contracted by The Town of Hamburg’s Youth, Recreation and Senior Services to teach adult acrylic painting classes and run a Saturday art component for children/young adults on the Autism spectrum. My hope is that all the various individuals I teach and have contact with have their life enriched by their art experiences.
