Pamela Atkinson
Bachelor of Fine Arts
Visual Artist
Pam Atkinson has developed learning projects for Inland school districts, participated in a variety of grant programs, and was the administrator of a successful, youth art program at the Riverside Art Museum. Helping children create art is her passion. “All children need to express themselves by drawing, painting, and making art. The ability to develop creative ideas, problem solve, and use perceptual thinking to visualize a unique work of art are skills that will set a student apart, no matter what they choose to study in college or pursue as a career.
