Hello and welcome to art!

My name is Kate Bennett.  This is my fiftenth year teaching elementary art. I graduated from East Carolina University with a BFA in Art Education with a concentration in painting and drawing.  I have always enjoyed art, but it was while taking art classes at Pamlico County High School that my passion for art making grew into pursuing a career in Art Education.   

I reside in Pamlico County with my husband, our 2 dogs, Daisy and Marley, and our Pot Belly pig named Tulip.  I have four amazing stepchildren who fill my life and heart with joy.  In my time outside of teaching and artmaking, I enjoy cooking, fishing, going to the beach, being outdoors and spending time with family and friends.

I am excited about starting the new school year at AWE.  It's going to be an AWEsome year in art class. Get ready to expand your creativity and have some fun!
