Call for Submissions
Issues of art and education directed toward the conceptions and experiences of girls and women are invited for this special issue of Visual Arts Research.
What's special about girls and women? How do girls and women influence and effect the field and practices of art education? The lived experiences, dreams, and nightmares of girls and women have been a part of art education theory and pedagogy for nearly 40 years. What forms of research, pedagogy, and specific herstories inform educators about best practices for teaching girls and women?
