"The
Klein Gallery offers invaluable resources for me as a public
school teacher. I am particularly impressed with the fact that
they incorporate community interests and allow these programs
and schools to exhibit there.....The gallery provided for transportation
to and from our school. Many of the students had limited experience
with art exhibits. But they became quite enthusiastic and excited
about these trips and art history.....I look forward to a continued
relationship with the gallery. Their generous support of my
students and myself is unparalleled."
Cheryl Henry Creely, Art Teacher
Thurgood Marshall Elementary School
"During my tenure at the Pennsylvania
Council on the Arts I had the opportunity to have an overview
of the educational activities of museums and visual arts organizations
throughout the Commonwealth. I know of no other arts program
of similar size to the Klein Gallery that does as much with
disadvantaged students as you. Education is a buzzword these
days, everyone talks about it, but at the Klein Gallery you
are implementing it. And you are implementing it not only for
one targeted program, but consistently, month after month throughout
the year."
Richard Siegesmund, Former Visual Arts Director
PA Council on the Arts
"The Esther M. Klein gallery is
doing a superb job in creating a true multi-cultural environment
that has included the work of Black artists, feminist artists,
as well as artists from all walks of life.....I can not emphasize
enough the importance that your gallery provides to me and my
students. Your choice of exhibitions, the location of your gallery
and its accessibility allow me to dialogue in a meaningful way
with inner-city students and enable them to make positive changes
in their lives."
Jeanette A. Jimenez, English Teacher
Charles Carroll High School
"I want to express my gratitude
to the Klein Gallery for extending an invitation to my class
to take part in the program you developed for your Talismanic,
Black and White Photography exhibit. We are a Title 1 school
and funds for programs of value like this that would benefit
the children are often not available to us.....I realize that
is must be difficult on you part to secure the funds to be able
to provide the busing, art supplies and food. Your efforts are
greatly appreciated and make a difference in the education of
these children. We look forward to participating in the next
parts of the program."
Mona Decker, 6th Grade Teacher
Sharswood School
"Your program is a terrific way
for children to be introduced to art appreciation. They were
not overwhelmed by a big museum or an impersonal tour, but were
given individual attention, guidance and praise. The admission,
workshop experience and transportation provided free of charge
have opened up these tremendous experiences to individuals who
would not otherwise have been able to attend."
