Instructor: Liz Slot

Elizabeth Slot received her bachelors in K-12 art education at Kendall College of Art and Design. Originally from Michigan, Slot traveled to Montana for new inspiration. While she's an elementary art teacher during the school year, she takes her time as an artist during summer. She is looking to inspire the qualities of the arts into young minds using various mediums. Growing up, she was always surrounded by creativity through her family, with her father being a carpenter, and mother being a natural artist. They were always teaching others along the way. It was no surprise that Liz ended up in education! In her free time, she is either working on her home, exploring, gardening, or cooking with family.
