67 | Engaging in Wonderment: The Intersection of Art, Joy, & Critical Thought | with Raygan Barrett & Nicole Clevenger

Today’s episode is all about the intersection of art education, joy, and critical thought. Our guests, Raygan Barrett & Nicole Clevenger, are the co-founders of Wonderment, creators of curated art experience that help educators and parents cultivate creative thinking. But the program is about more than just art; it’s a combination of connecting to the world, connecting to each other, and learning about all aspects of life through the lens of art.Wonderment is basically a combination of Nicole and Raygan’s experiences. Nicole's background in informal education allows her to dive deep into the subject matter, play off of children's interests, and encourage learning through experience. As an artist, Raygan focuses more on exploration, thinking like an artist, and the creative process. The alchemy of these two approaches and experiences is a truly one-of-a-kind learning experience, for everyone involved.Plus, Raygan and Nicole have come up with some great ideas for how parents can bring Wonderment into their own communities this Summer.To learn more, visit: pastfoundation.orgResources:Learn more at www.wonderment.artWonderment on Instagram: www.instagram.com/wonderment.artRaygan on Instagram: www.instagram.com/artbyrayganNicole on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/nicole-clevenger-24497669Learning Unboxed is produced in part by Crate MediaRecorded by Eric French at WOSU Studios in Columbus, Ohio
