About Resident Artist:
Assalamu Alaikum! My name is Lokho Kotile. I have been a teacher for 4 years working in Charter Schools across St. Paul. Most of the students know me as Ms. L. I love all things art (drawing, painting, photography, and film). I’m very excited to explore with each student and expand their creativity.
This class will allow each student to create meaningful art projects from different countries worldwide. I obtained my Master of Fine Arts in Visual Studies at M.C.A.D (Minneapolis College of Art and Design). I believe Art is important because it allows us to express ourselves. We can create nothing into something. “
