As an Artist-in-Residence, Liz continues her 3 decades of work with the Nebraska Arts Council. She is also affiliated with the Nebraska Rural Teaching Artist Initiative. Both require traveling throughout the state, collaborating with teachers, schools and organizations who want to challenge their students to express themselves artistically. Her goal when working with students is to build their self- confidence in the arts and in their own creativity. Read more about Liz here.
