Kandice Stewart Bio Beyond being a proud mother of three amazing human beings, she is a Doctoral student at Columbia University studying the impact of visual arts praxis in the public sector. She has partnered with the Metropolitan Museum of Art, University of Florida’s Art Education program, and the NY Historical Society to offer ways of knowing and sharing the expansive human experience through art. She has helped other Art educators at Teacher’s College, CCNY City College, the Art of Education University, and the Academy of Fellows to think critically and creatively about their personal arts praxis and pedagogy. She believes that art is the present opportunity to connect with yourself, others and the world. She promotes that motivation, compassion, and love are strong avenues for creating opportunities for students to share their voice. She aims to bring students into a place of seeing their creative selves and our human story explained through art in a mutually safe space.
