Rachael Romero encourages her students to engage in self-determined art exploration. Her teaching is particular and personal. Her students work has been shown four times at the Cork Gallery, Avery Fisher Hall, Lincoln Center, twice at the New York Public Library on 125th Street ; at St Peters Church, the Jazz Ministry, NY. and at Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church @55th Street, NY.
Making art transforms pain and builds belief in endless possibility.
My students' art portfolios (many built up over 20 years) clearly document how participation in the Art and Writing Workshop can be a major contributing factor to increased self confidence and wellbeing.
