​"It was so great to hear your story, learn about your art and work, and see how you engaged with the [Farnsworth Magnet School] students.

​They were engaged and excited, and it was super clear that you made a big impact on them.
 Thank you for taking time out of your schedule to share with the students today. I know that I meant a lot to them..."
