LAEA District Representatives

A Local Art Education Assembly District Representative will become a Local Art Education Association Delegate when the District affiliates with FAEA. Affiliation is accomplished by providing FAEA with the district organization’s Constitution, Bylaws, a list of officers and a list of art educators in that District. Service is by appointment or election by FAEA members in the District. The District Representative must be a member of FAEA. There is no set term of office.

Local Art Education Assembly Representatives represent an unaffiliated district at the FAEA Conference and present concerns of the district, but they do not participate in voting.

Benefits

  • Meet other art teachers
  • Guidance and mentorship
  • Professional development
  • Leadership opportunities
  • Community involvement

To begin, focus on what is most important and add one or two more elements each year. Start with finding a common meeting time and location (whether in person or virtual). Reach out to all art educators in your community and invite them to join. Set some goals and write a mission statement. Consider applying for tax-exempt status by visiting FloridaSunBiz.org. During meetings, share classroom tips and tricks, or have a member teach others a new technique. Meetings can be for learning, sharing, or social purposes. Do some dreaming as a whole group while you set short and long term goals
