We are thrilled to report that our annual alumni reception was a success with over 80 guests in attendance. Alumni, colleagues, and friends attended the event at the historic Flatiron Building in Ft. Worth. It was a wonderful opportunity to catch up, network and just relax after a long day.
Thank you to Charlotte Waters, Savannah Stanbery, and Professor Antonio Cuyler for organizing the alumni event from Tallahassee and to Dorothy Demay, Sunny Spillane, and Adriane Pereira, and the Dept. Chairperson, Dr. Dave Gussak, for greeting and making guests feel welcomed on site. As you can tell from the accompanying photos, fun was had by all.
Looking forward to seeing you all again next year when the National Art Education Association convenes again in San Diego, California!
