We are delighted to share our latest podcast episode, featuring UNCP Associate Professor of Art, Dr. Naomi Lifshitz-Grant. This episode showcases Dr. Lifschitz-Grant’s work mentoring aspiring teachers as Coordinator of Graduate and Undergraduate Art Education, and discusses the local inspiration she finds as a painter.
Dr. Lifschitz-Grant earned her Master of Arts and Doctor of Art Education degrees from Teachers College, Columbia University. A veteran art educator, Dr. Lifschitz-Grant taught for eighteen years in public and private schools in New York City; Birmingham, Alabama; and in Italy, at the preschool, elementary, middle, and high school levels. Before joining UNCP, she taught at Columbia University, Bank Street College of Education, UNC Charlotte, and Appalachian State University. Her research explores how community-based arts can serve to implement change, particularly in urban, under-served school programs.
Dr. Lifschitz-Grant is a practicing artist who has been awarded a number of fellowships and attended artist-in-residency programs at The MacDowell Colony, Vermont Studio Center, A.I.R. Vallauris, Brisons Veor, Centre D’Art, Arad Arts Project, and the Chautauqua Institute, and has exhibited her work internationally, with solo exhibitions in New York City at AIR and 55 Mercer Gallery.
