Comments:
".....we would like you to do a longer version of the keynote you did for us, the attendees said they could have listened to you all day
and were asking for you to present again."
Joan Christopher New Jersey Department of Human Services
"Susan Striker us one of the most energetic, engaging, challenging presenters I have hosted at the Tattered Cover Book Store. Her ideas on art and
art education never fail to spark a lively conversation. And when she works with the kids, the room comes alive."
Bret Berthoff, Tattered Cover Book Store, Denver Colorado

is very dynamic and wonderful with children. Both she and her books encourage creativity. I was totally amazed at some of the work the children produced at her workshop."
