Kerrie Kilpatrick-Weinberg BIO

Executive Director/Artistic Director, Kerrie Kilpatrick-Weinberg, educated and trained in Art and Design (3-dimensional), developed the original Art Walk curriculum, as a step-by-step technical process tailored to maximize and benefit At Risk and Special needs students.

ART WALK FOR KIDS/ ADULTS(TM) "Takes Art to Work" in 2 ways:

First, through Design Projects that include creating theatre set designs and "back drops" for theatre productions, murals, and
I Madonnari (Santa Barbara's annual street art festival, trip-tics, and installations).

Secondly, we invite guests who share their creative approach to their vocation. We interview our guests who share their resume experiences that have led them to career success.
