Rebecca Potts Aguirre is a teaching artist from Montana currently living in Los Angeles. Her work is inspired by the intersection between ecological concern and the female experience, especially that of motherhood and trauma, often using unconventional materials that connect to childhood and “women’s work.” She is represented by Stay Home Gallery for 2021. She is also a member of Spilt Milk Gallery and is listed in the curated directories All She Makes and Visionary Art Collective.

Her practice consists of 3 spheres: art-making, teaching, and community building. She has worked in art education for 15 years and founded and hosts Teaching Artist Podcast, highlighting artists who teach young people. She coordinates the Art Educator’s Lounge, a community support group for art educators, in collaboration with Victoria Fry. She also runs Play + Inspire Gallery in partnership with Maria Coit.
Rebecca earned her MFA in Visual Arts from Washington University in St. Louis and her BA in Studio Art & Geography from Middlebury College. Her work has been exhibited throughout the U.S. and in Europe and Australia at spaces including The Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum, Zhou B. Art Center, New York Studio Gallery, Art Share L.A., and SoLA Contemporary. In 2010, her essay on art and climate change, “Creating a Fourth Culture,” was published in 20UNDER40: Re-Inventing the Arts and Arts Education for the 21st Century. Rebecca’s MFA Thesis in 2009 also addressed the role of art and artists in addressing climate change.

She has also worked as an arts administrator, community organizer, and school co-founder. She participated in the Artist Residency in Motherhood from 2015-2019, which was the time it took to fully resume her art practice after becoming a mother.]]>tag:soundcloud,2010:tracks/1066305553Fri, 11 Jun 2021 15:01:49 +0000Megan SweetWe will talk with teaching artist Rebecca Potts about why arts education is important to youth and what it was like to teach art during the Pandemic.

Additionally, Megan is SUPER excited to be connected to the Improv Therapy Group in Chicago, bringing communication techniques and applied improv to therapists to use in individual and group settings.

With a background in Child, Couple & Family Therapy and School Counseling, Megan is passionate about utilizing a multisystemic lens when working with and designing programming in schools and communities, and helping bridge the relationship between families and schools.

Megan is also a mental health advocate
working hard against the mental health stigma. After intensive therapeutic treatment after the birth of her second son, Megan recognized that though she was always passionate about
empowering others, she was not doing the same for herself or paying attention to her own mental wellbeing.

In order to balance life as a mother, professional, and living with a mental health diagnosis, Megan started her own business, IMPROVed Mind. IMPROVed Mind ’s mission is to empower individuals to build positive relationships with self and others through improv, humor, mindfulness, and social and emotional learning. Megan believes that helping people connect with their creative and silly side, and understanding the power within one’s own story, will lead to more mindfulness and connection with others. Megan is also hoping to use her own story to influence
leadership in educational settings and beyond to lead with emotional intelligence and learning to embed wellbeing practices in the workplace. Megan once had a fortune cookie message that read, “People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care!” It has been her mantra ever since. Megan currently lives in Bloomfield, NJ, and when she is not working she can most likely

Lauren Markham is a writer and reporter based in Berkeley, California, and the author of The Far Away Brothers, a chronicle of unaccompanied minor migrants from El Salvador to the United States. Drawing on her expertise, Markham speaks about global refugee issues, Central American child migration in the U.S., environmental issues, and urban education and education policy.

Having spent over a decade working with refugees and immigrants in nonprofits and schools, Lauren began reporting on unaccompanied minors from Central America in 2013. She continued reporting on this issue while supporting access to legal counsel, social services support, and mental healthcare for an influx of hundreds of unaccompanied minors at the school where she was working in Oakland, California, many of whom were fleeing the region’s brutal violence. She began working on The Far Away Brothers to examine the root causes of this mass youth migration—to understand why all of these children were suddenly, alone and under extremely dangerous conditions, making their way from Central America to the United States. In 2019, she published a version of The Far Away Brothersadapted for young adults.

An expert in migration, an educator, and an accomplished journalist, Lauren’s work has appeared or is forthcoming in outlets such as The Guardian, Harper’s, Orion, Guernica, VICE, Pacific Standard, The New Yorker.com and VQR, where she is a contributing editor.

She is a graduate of the Vermont College of Fine Arts’ MFA in writing program and has been awarded fellowships from the Mesa Refuge, the UC Berkeley 11th Hour Food & Farming Journalism Fellowship, The French American Foundation, The Rotary Foundation, and the Middlebury Fellowship in Environmental Journalism.
