The Durham Arts Council is pleased to present the Durham Public Schools Art Instructor Showcase in the DAC’s Semans Gallery. This is the fifth year that the DAC has collaborated with the Durham Public Schools to showcase the creativity of our public-school teachers and create a space for their work to be recognized and enjoyed by the community. By featuring their personal creative work this exhibit allows teachers to step outside of their responsibilities in the classroom and share their vision as creators. We hope you enjoy getting to know our public-school teachers through their artwork! Each label includes the school at which the artist teaches.
