Caucus Historian’s Report
by Laurel Lampela
Since this is the first report of the LGBIC Historian this will cover the time since the LGBIC was formed to the present. The LGBIC was formed in April 1994 at the convention in Baltimore, Maryland by a group of art educators concerned with the isolation, invisibility, discrimination and prejudice that many lesbian, gay, and bisexual art educators, students, and artists experience. The caucus was granted affiliate status in March 1996 at the NAEA Convention in San Francisco when the Delegates Assembly voted 39 to 9 in favor. There were 12 abstentions. The following will serve as a review of what the LGBIC has accomplished since inception:
Co-Coordinators 1994 - 1996 Ed Check and Laurel Lampela
1996 - 1998 Laurel Lampela and John Chamberlin
1998 - 2000 Anne M. Manning and Ruth Slotnick
Secretary 1994-1996 Vacant
1996-1998 Suzanne T. Baxter
