Congratulations to our South Central MSTA Educators of the Year!
Congratulations to Lea Deller, who was honored at the 2026 Youth Art Month celebration at the Missouri State Capitol. Lea received the prestigious President’s Choice Award, along with art supplies and a $100 Blick gift certificate. Her teacher, Cody Nickles of Salem High School, was also recognized with a $200 Blick gift certificate. Representing Salem High School alongside Lea were Haley Yerk, Madison Reese (for the group calendar project), and Jhonine Maralit, each showcasing high-quality work that reflected the talent and creativity of our students.
Organized by the Missouri Art Education Association, Youth Art Month (YAM) is a nationwide observance held each March to emphasize the importance of visual arts education for all students. The 2026 theme, “The World Needs Art,” was highlighted through a statewide exhibit featuring exceptional K–12 artwork from across Missouri, displayed in the Capitol from mid-March through April. Each MAEA member art teacher may submit up to four student artworks, ensuring broad representation from schools statewide. The celebration concluded with an awards ceremony on April 9, 2026, in the Capitol Rotunda, where top honors—including the Governor’s Mansion Award, the Governor’s Award, the MAEA Chairman Award, and the MAEA President’s Award—recognized both student achievement and the dedication of art educators.
