Lindsey Hansen graduated in 2000 from Meredith College, earning a BA in Studio Art and her K-12 NC art teaching certification. She married and welcomed her two sons, Ben and Noah. For several years, Lindsey worked for Jerry’s Artarama, an art supply company, creating a DVD-ROM based home art studio program designed to increase students’ love and appreciation of the visual arts. Lindsey wrote the curriculum, starred in the seven videos, and was responsible for all the marketing for this award- winning program.

Lindsey next began teaching in a traditional public school setting as the art specialist at Creekside Elementary in Durham.

This fall, she will begin a new adventure as the art teacher at The Montessori School of Durham. The rest of her time will be devoted to the launch of the exciting new Children’s Art Classes location in Chapel Hill, where she will be teaching classes throughout the week. Lindsey loves sharing her enthusiasm for serious art education with children of all ages.
