Leigh Blanchard

I have over 20 years of experience teaching art at all levels, ranging from kindergarten to adult. I currently teach middle school in Randolph County. I love working with all mediums of art but my favorite is clay. I enjoy creating a basic form on the potter’s wheel and then transforming it into something else through different hand-building techniques.

During my career of teaching, I have become an expert at encouraging creativity while simultaneously teaching solid technical skills to my students. Backed by a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts from UNCG, my specialty is in painting, pottery, and multimedia design.

“Our partnership program, Art for Health, with The Art Gallery at Congdon Yards over the years has provided so many of our student visitors with the opportunity to create art that complements our healthy living curriculum in a fun, engaging way. The quality of art instruction has always been phenomenal and Michaela is amazing at helping students build self confidence in their artwork while incorporating many aspects of our programs. Art for Health is the number one requested addition to the programming at Millis and we are so thankful to work with such a wonderful organization!"
