From a young age\, she has always been creative\, working across as many mediums as possible. One of her favorite mediums is photography\, and she graduated from the Hallmark Institute of Photography in 2012. During her time at Hallmark\, Elizabeth discovered not only a deep love for photography but also a passion for working with children\, particularly through portraiture. This experience led her to pursue an education in early childhood\, and she is now a teacher at Elmwood Day School.   \nElizabeth has been the Director of Bethany Kids CREATE Summer Program for the last three years. 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. Ruby has taught a little bit of everything to people of all ages and backgrounds\, but nothing is as consistently inspiring and exciting as getting to teach in environments like Bethany Kids CREATE Summer Program\, where they have been the Art Instructor for three years now. They believe that every child deserves the chance to be creative in a place where there is no judgement\, no emphasis on failure or success\, guided only by exploration and expression.
