Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi! My name is Ann Denham and I teach Visual Arts classes including drawing, painting, sculpture, collage, media, printmaking, and photography.
I have a bachelor's degree in Photojournalism from Western Kentucky University and a Master's Degree in Education from City College of New York.  I taught visual arts in New York City Public Schools for 8 years.  I have worked at newspapers in the U.S. and continue to work on documentary projects along with taking portraits and weddings.
I believe everyone can learn and believe in everyone receiving a well rounded education.
The photo of me is at the Emmy's in Los Angeles- a once in a lifetime opportunity!
My passion in life is creativity and I also love to kayak and have two bichons, Bailey and Bella.
