Park School’s Pre-K-12 Visual Arts Chair and Upper School Visual Arts Teacher Christine Buckton Tillman was featured in BmoreArt this week. The in-depth interview covered art education, the Baltimore art scene, her sources for inspiration, and how to try and balance it all.

Christine is a member of the flat file program at Transformer Gallery in D.C. An ongoing collaborative project, Chroma, with artist Lisa Solomon, has been commissioned for several private and public collections
