Meet the Teaching Artist
Jules Hepp (they/them)
Jules Hepp (they/them/theirs) is a White, Queer Nonbinany person, Environmental Educator, and Artist. They are committed to the ongoing work of teaching and connection with anti-racist and social justice practices. Jules’ passion is building and developing awareness of how we can as best care for ourselves, other people, and the place/space/Beings around us.
Jules sees Art as expressing understanding and curiosities, and utilizing art through the lens of learning and re-learning ways we connect and collaborate with the world and creatively communicate and form relationships with each other. They see art-making as an invitation into deeper learning and questions, as well as action. When we ask what we see in a space, and have time to pay attention and represent it, we also pay attention to ideas like form and structure of a place/space/Being as much as it creates space and place to explore topics like how that place/space/Being is impacted by power, privilege, culture, history, and politics.
