In her teaching\, Elizabeth encourages young artists to work together as a community. She created the Bethany bees: Bee kind\, Bee creative\, Bee helpful\, Bee brave\, and Bee you! — not only to honor the bees on Bethany’s property but also to encourage a safe space for kids to be themselves\, work together\, and find the artist they are.  \nWhen she is not teaching\, Elizabeth can be found in her studio at Bethany\, where she creates her mosaic jewelry pieces!   \nRuby Sgueglia (they/them)\nInstructor: ages 6-7\nRuby Sgueglia is a multimedia artist and art educator currently residing in Putnam County\, New York. They have experience in a wide variety of artistic mediums\, with a particular concentration on painting and drawing.
