About this listen

In this episode, ASCY’s Sue Lepore chats with ASCY’s Amanda Karr about diving into the Language of Art—a thoughtful and inspiring six-part learning series inspired by Ann Pelo’s book.

Together, they reflect on how recent investments in art materials for Hamilton’s early years programs opened up new possibilities for creative expression. Amanda shares how the series encourages educators to move beyond traditional crafts and into the world of process art—where materials become language, and creativity becomes personal.

Whether you’re an educator looking to reimagine your approach to art, or someone curious about the connections between memory, identity, and artistic expression, this conversation offers powerful insights into the role of authentic materials in children’s learning.

If you’re interested in exploring The Language of Art by Ann Pelo further, you can find copies at the ASCY Professional Resource Library. It’s also available through most major book retailers.

Better yet, consider engaging with the book as part of a book study with your ASCY Professional Learning Consultant—book sets are available to support deeper reflection and professional learning.
