Manage episode 354240882 series 3443902
Have you heard about the local artist who inspired high school art students to win a national Vans Custom Culture contest? That happened in real life right here in Flagstaff, AZ. Today, we're going #beyondFLG with Kayley Quick, an artist and graphic design/art teacher at THE Flagstaff High School. #GoEagles. Kayley is a 2009 graduate of Northern Arizona University with a bachelor’s degree in Education. As a teacher, she seeks to connect with her students and sees the roles of a teacher as one that can have a lasting impact. (This might include taking a rubber duck to the face #eyesup). As an artist, Kaley finds value in being a self-described "professional weirdo" who enjoys a variety of mediums and artistic outlets. In 2019, she was part of the FHS team of artists that included Alyssa Williams and Nicole Dougherty that won the Vans Custom Culture contest, which brought in $75,000 to the school. Kayley won Best of FLG local artist in 2018 and 2020 and was chosen by the Arizona Daily Sun as one of the top 20 people under the age of 40 in Flagstaff for her contributions in teaching and art in the community. Stay tuned as Kayley, exclusively reveals details about a project in the works and to learn more about what makes her tick. Also, find out how Dunny Dunyel loses the moniker #buttongamestrong (it's not pretty).
