"I believe the ARTEFFECT modules and lesson plans can align with reflective, meaning-making experiences through artmaking. Each project in my classroom with my scholar-artists is designed for them to explore materials and make sense of and share their own stories."
Dr. Stephen Charles Newbold, Jr. is a native of Miami, Florida, an artist and educator based in Washington DC and a three-time alumni of the College of Fines Arts at The Florida State University. He has earned a two Bachelor of Art degrees in Art History and Political Science (2006), a Master of Science degree in Art Education (2020), a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree in Art Education (2024). His eighteen-year career in K-12 education fuels his desire to motivate and move people through art for social justice. His work on the Black male’s experiences in K-12 learning spaces—both as student and teacher has inspired an inquiry on the blues, and the relationship between trial and triumph.
