​Ben Lamp has been an Art educator for 13 years, and currently teaches Intro to Art, Intro to Digital Media, Drawing, Sculpture, and AP Art History at Pewaukee High School.  Ben received his Bachelor of Arts in Art Education and a Minor in Art History from the UW-Eau Claire (2006), and is currently pursuing a Master’s Degree in Educational Leadership at Carroll University.  He enjoys spending time with his wife Stacy and their two sons, Chris (6) and Oliver (1), painting, woodworking, playing golf, fishing, hunting, and generally being outdoors.  

​My name is Courtney Goss and I am now in my eighth year as an Art Educator.  From a young age, I always told everyone that I wanted to be an artist when I grew up.  It wasn’t until I had already graduated from UWM with a BFA in Inter-Arts that I realized I wanted to go back to school to pursue a career as an Adaptive Art Educator.

I am now in my second year with Whitnall School District, and could not ask for a workplace that offers a greater sense of community.  As the only Middle School Art Teacher in the district, I have the wonderful opportunity to see these students come in as young sixth graders and blossom creatively as they grow.  I challenge my students to push beyond their comfort zone, research, problem solve and thoroughly reflect on the pieces they create.  Through building positive relationships, an open mind to meet my students in the middle, and the motto “Every accomplishment starts with the decision to Try,” my goal is to create a safe and positive environment for all students that walk through my door.

​My name is Sara Hinke and I have the pleasure of working, living and raising my family in Tomahawk, Wisconsin. I always knew I wanted to be a teacher. At a young age I would play teacher, create worksheets and give homework to the neighborhood kids. It wasn’t until high school, when I was required to take a fine arts course, that I found my true passion in art. I never knew I could create art until my high school art teachers fostered and challenged my talents. It was through these experiences that I knew I wanted to teach art and give my students the same passion for art that my teachers did.


As a grade 6-12 art educator at Tomahawk School District, I have the pleasure of getting to know, teach, and create art with every student. I have been teaching art for 11 years and have created a curriculum where every student has the chance to become an artist, creative problem solver and better citizen. I challenge my students to push themselves creatively, seek ideas and criticism from their peers, and denounce perfectionism by embracing mistakes.  My favorite part about being an educator is watching my students’ eyes light up when they create art.  My goal is to change each student’s “I can’t” to “I can” create. I believe that every person can learn to create art and that no one is without their own creative eye.
