Ashley is certified by the State Board of Education to teach all levels of Art.
"Every day I look forward to bringing an appreciation for the arts into the eyes and minds of all ages, it's never to early to become an artist and it's never to late to get creative! I can not wait to see what the years to come offer on this incredible ART journey!"
