passionate art educator, graduate instructor, wife, mother, and entrepreneur. She is most well known as the founder

of “The Art of Education” (www.theartofed.com), a popular online professional development resource for art teachers.

Jessica will also be doing breakout sessions during the day on Friday.

Along with our keynotes, we off er sessions that include hands on workshops and presentations that will spark your

8:15 am-8:50 amReinventing the ArtroomKathryn Rulien-Bareis, B Able To, Inc. CEO, inventor, entrepreneur and art educator

Kathryn Rulien-Bareis teaches art at DeLong Middle School in

Wisconsin. While working with students who have diverse abilities, she

began to invent tools with a Universal Design. In 2004 Kathryn started

her own business, B Able To, Inc. to encourage more accessibility and

independence in visual art. She has invented and manufactured her

fi rst tools in a line of universal tool designs, Adapt-A-Cut® and

Adapt-A-Hold™.

Kathryn’s teaching experiences include teaching art to students from

ages 3 to senior citizens. She has had the opportunity to work within

six diff erent school districts in Wisconsin. In 1990 while she completed

her Adaptive Art Certifi cation at the Young Artist Workshops in De Pere,

Kathryn fell in love with the program and continued commuting from

Eau Claire to De Pere for ten summers. She was employed as a visual

arts teacher, site coordinator and also taught graduated level classes for

St. Norbert. Kathryn will admit that the students within this summer

program taught her more about diverse learning than any other

learning environment she had encountered.

Kathryn has had the opportunity to present at local, state, national and

international educational conferences. Her presentations include topics

of new technologies, adaptive art, assistive technology, and universal

design for the art room. But she has also presented to area business

organizations too. She has shared art ideas to activity directors at

senior retirement centers, discussed packaging designs to

entrepreneurs and presented a creative journey keynote for a

women’s business conference.

“As an art teacher my goal is to allow all of my students various

opportunities to communicate their ideas creatively with independence.

It is independent expression that motivates us to learn more.”


8:15 am-8:50 am The Empowered Art TeacherJessica Balsley, founder of “The Art of Education” www.theartofed.com, art educator, graduate instructor and entrepreneur

Jessica Balsley is a passionate art educator, graduate instructor, wife,

mother, and entrepreneur. She is most well known as the founder

of “The Art of Education” (www.theartofed.com), a popular online

professional development resource for art teachers. Jessica loves to

share her wealth of experience gained serving as a K-5 Art Teacher

in the second fastest growing school district in Iowa. There, she also

served as her district’s Art Department Coordinator for three years,

designing and implementing professional development for the K-12 Art

Team, while simultaneously teaching graduate courses as an adjunct

instructor for local college and writing for Arts and Activities Magazine.

Jessica has served on the Art Educators of Iowa board and worked on

several committees including planning the 2011 AEI State Conference

and is on NAEA’s IRG Committee. Today, Jessica lives in Osage, IA with

her husband Derek and their 2 year-old daughter, Nora.

While writing her Master’s Thesis on Professional Development for Art

Teachers, Jessica realized that art teachers needed and deserved more

when it came to their professional development. She decided to stop

sitting on the sidelines and do something about it. Thus, her current

endeavor (where she is now devoted to full time) The Art of Education,

was born. Jessica provides “Ridiculously Relevant™ Professional

Development” to Art Educators all around the world, including a robust

catalog of 14+ online degree-level classes for Art Teachers, an online

magazine which off ers free daily articles, lesson plans, tips, tricks,

videos, and discussions about the hottest issues in art education.

With a down to earth and realistic approach, Jessica continues on

her lifetime goal of empowering art teachers to thrive in their

profession, to reignite their passion for teaching, and help art

educators discover small tweaks they can make in their teaching

to change their life and career for the better.

Jill LaGrange - Summit Elementary School,

Oconomowoc

Wisconsin Art Educator of the Year

Jill La Grange is an art educator who is proud to

have been nominated by fellow colleagues Leah

Robertson, Suellyn Shellpepper, Mel Pontious, Virgi

Driscoll and Dani Graf to receive the Wisconsin Art

Educator of the Year Award.

“The signifi cance of this prestigious award is given to teachers with exceptional

skill, life long dedication to the arts and young people, to people who believe

art has the power to transform. Ms. Jill LaGrange is the perfect candidate; she

has put students and art at the center of almost every task she has set before

her. Even in situations when adults haven’t considered asking them, including

them, or learning from them, Jill was always the one that said, ‘Lets have the

students do it!’”

“Under Jill LaGrange’s endless and unselfi sh commitment, students from

kindergarten through twelfth grade have engaged in school wide art

projects from murals to student initiated galleries. Jill has uncanny ability to

integrate traditional subjects such as reading, math, social studies or science

into meaningful classroom or community art adventures. Always on the

cutting edge of innovative art education, Jill has created with her students

technologically savvy computer generated art which captivates the fi ve year

old kindergartener to the ninety year old grandparent, stimulating imagination

and long term art appreciation.” Suellyn Shellpepper

“Her leadership capabilities extend beyond the classroom into the community

and statewide. She was and is involved in many community projects to advance

the arts. On the state level, she presented meaningful current art sessions at

conferences and workshops in her professional organizations over the years.

She served as president of Wisconsin Art Education Association

and, as such, served on the NAEA Delegates Assembly. She continues to

be eff ective working hard in her position as Past-President of WAEA. These

experiences made her an even better art educator who could defend and

advocate for art education and its creative and intellectual promises to

students.” Virgi Driscoll
