I've been teaching art for 15 years. My hope is to use art education as a vehicle for people of all ages to learn to think creatively, learn how to relate to people of all kinds, and to learn to see. I've done several seminars for metro area teachers on "Catalyzing Your Student's Creativity."​ I've been developing Radiate Education, which maps and assesses 21st Century Skills in an easy to understand, child centered info-graphic.
I also play and compose music (guitar, piano, drums, voice). You may be able to find my music on the web (search Jonathan Maki or Rub in iTunes).
