"If you're thinking about MFA programs, look at the faculty. Interrogate the power structures. In this moment of racial reckoning, asking for more inclusivity, how did these programs respond? What are the actual changes that are happening?" -@VichetChum #EducatorAppreciationWeek

[Howard University @HowardU]

#FlashBackFriday: Did you know the Corcoran originated as an art gallery in 1874? In 1878, funds were donated to create an art school alongside the gallery. The collection later moved to the Flagg Building in 1897. More info in GW Magazine's 200 Facts & Artifacts - linked in bio

Just poked our heads into the #PlayingShakespeare matinee of #AMidsummerNightsDream.

On Helena's line "I am as ugly as a bear", one of the school kids shouted back "No, you are beautiful!" 😭

This is why we love Playing Shakespeare.
