“In life you’ll realize that there is a purpose for every person you meet.  Some are there to test you, some will teach you, and some will bring out the best in you. My daughter Hailey was in Kindergarten when she met Ms. Lewis, her art teacher, at Greensboro Academy.  Not a day passed that Hailey did not come home talking about her art class.  The amount of creativity, energy and determination that Ms. Lewis was able to pound into that little being was unbelievable.  Although our time with Ms. Lewis teaching Hailey at GA was short, the bond she made with Hailey will last an eternity.  When Hailey decided to set her sights on attending Weaver Academy for Visual Arts, we knew the one person that would motivate, teach and inspire Hailey was Ms. Lewis.  Luckily, Ms. Lewis was available to see Hailey for private lessons and help her prepare a beautiful portfolio to present at her audition.  We are excited to announce that Hailey was accepted to attend Weaver Academy for Visual Arts.  We could not have done this without the instruction and inspiration from Ms. Lewis.  Whether you are looking to audition at an Arts school, attend a summer camp or just a fun art class, you will not be disappointed with what you receive from Ms. Lewis.  She is a remarkable artist and such an inspiration to everyone that she comes in contact with.  She will bring out the best in you!!!!”

“You have far exceeded any of my expectations and you will always be remembered as an incredible teacher and human being by both of my girls. I am hopeful that you will be around for many more years. You have made a huge impact on my daughter over the last few years. She is always talking about art class and what they learned, but especially about you, the person. She really looks up to you. I started this letter to congratulate you on a job well done, but I’m ending it with a deep appreciation for people in our lives who make a difference simply by being themselves, day in and day out. Thank you for being an angel who has touched the hearts of my daughters and myself.”

“Ms. Lewis has the ability to engage all students regardless of their artistic talent or ability. Each child feels a creative desire to try their best in her class. The art projects that are introduced are so unique and different and the children are genuinely excited to produce their own work.”

“We all need more of this: what Kara offers is a safe space and a deep learning that has truly helped me grow as a person, intellectually, emotionally, consciously. The women in the class with me, are now lifelong friends and we all have grown and healed an laughed and cried and created. I am so thankful to have been a part of this group, and I would highly recommend it.” -Jordan Lacenski
