This annual exhibition highlights art educators who actively pursue their own artistic endeavors, and showcases their efforts.  Artists this year include: Tarleton Blackwell, Manning High School; Sharon Campbell, South Carolina Governor's School for the Arts and Humanities; Katy Cassell, Fine Arts Center of Greenville County; MacArthur Goodwin, Spartanburg High School (retired) and former president of the National Art Education Association; Hayley Gravlee (Columbia College 2006), Sue Cleveland Elementary School; Marion Mason, White Knoll High School; Michel McNinch, Independent/Private Art Instructor; Mary Beth Kennedy Owen (Columbia College 1992); Katherine Perry, Ridgeview High School; and Melinda Rogers, Busbee Middle School. A wide variety of media will be shown including sculpture, mixed media, drawing, photography, and painting.

It goes without saying that within every art teacher there is an artist. While working hard as educators, these individuals also remain practicing artists who seek inspiration for their creative process as well as their teaching methods. As talented students rise through art education toward careers, art teachers guide and nurture their development. South Carolina boasts a wide range of public and private art programs with dedicated instructors for young artists from every age level and background. This exhibition is an opportunity to view art instructors as their artistic self while appreciating their role and impact as educators.

The Columbia College Goodall Gallery is located in the Spears Music and Art Center in downtown Columbia on North Main Street, 1301 Columbia College Drive.
