Ohio Art Education Association
Awards

There is no better way to support excellence in art education than to nominate a worthy candidate for an award. Thank you for the time it will take you to complete a nomination.

Requesting letters of recommendation from an art educator's administrators brings them into the picture as they reflect on the worth of their art educator and his or her art program. The Service Awards to citizens, educators, and business/organizations recognize those outside the profession who give to it. By supporting our supporters, we express appreciation and engender continued support. Please follow the requirements and meet deadlines listed below.
