About NorthWest
Welcome to Northwest! The Northwest Ohio Art Education Association, is geographically, the largest of nine regions that comprise the OAEA.
Being a member allows you to take part in our professional development workshops, local and state art shows, and our annual November Conference. Recently, we have had workshops on bringing technology in the classroom, simple batik for all levels and fusing glass. Membership provides networking opportunities for those studying art education and connections to those who work in our many art institutions. Please contact our Membership Chair, Dawn Murphy@dawnburggraf@aim.com. Dawn will be happy to assist you in the simple process of joining the most relevant arts education association in the state of Ohio!
