Welcome to the Hiawatha Howe Art Department

My name is Kenneth Rivera and I'm the Art teacher for the Hiawatha Howe School. I received my B.A. in Studio Arts from the California State University of Los Angeles and a Masters of Arts Education from the University of Minnesota.

I enjoy teaching students about Art and its hands-on application in our world. It is my intention to provide a welcoming environment to all students and their creative expression.  In my classroom, students are provided with a general framework to improve their Art making and communication skills. Throughout their elementary arts education students are encouraged to pursue projects that are personally engaging and challenging.  

Outside the classroom, I enjoy painting, swimming, playing basketball, and spending time with my family.  

Thank you for visiting our Art Department Website.

Sincerely,

Kenneth Antonio Rivera
