Timothy Lee

Renowned artist Timothy Lee visited Hobgood Elementary School this week. Lee, the first prizewinner of the 2014 VSA Emerging Young Artists Competition, shared his story and artistic insights while instructing two 5th grade classes during his visit. The VSA, an affiliate of The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, provides arts and education opportunities for people with disabilities. Lee was among hundreds of artists to enter in the 2014 competition entitled “The Journey,” and his work has been displayed in galleries around the nation, including the S. Dillon Ripley Center at the Smithsonian. Lee visited Hobgood as part of the ongoing partnership between Murfreesboro City Schools and MTSU.
