The KyAEA motto is “Leading a child to greatness through art” and each winner embodies the epitome of what a solid arts education is meant to be and do for Kentucky students.

Each year, the KyAEA members, associates, affiliates, and community members nominate the candidates they feel are most deserving of the Art Educator of the year awards by providing specific reasoning for each and every nomination written.  It is an honor to be considered and nominated. The nominations from these individuals help to build a stronger arts focus among schools and districts and within communities across Kentucky.
