Frank Gonzalez, Artist and Educator, is dedicated to helping people of all ages discover their creative potential. Frank is well known in the Burlington area for his workshops and residencies in local schools. He was born in Pasadena, California where he attended a John Dewey School in the 30's. This early educational experience helped to form the foundation of his educational perspective: that of respecting the unique creativity which is innate for every human being. In Burlington, Frank has helped to bring to light the legacy of John Dewey, who was born in Burlington and contributed to the development of educational philosophy world-wide. In 1977, Frank founded and directed the Learning Tree, a center for creativity in the arts and education in Shelburne, Vermont. His visual works include murals, paintings, sculpture, pottery, ceramics, masks, puppets, kites gliders, hot air balloons. Frank currently travels and teaches in Vermont, California and Ecuador.
