Meet our Art Teacher
At Sanchez, there are as many artists as there are students!
Hi, I’m Mrs. Potter, the art teacher at Alicia Sanchez since 2012. I’m a Colorado native and live in Denver with my husband, two dogs, and a cat named Mr. Kitty. I studied filmmaking at the Rhode Island School of Design, spent a year making art in Rome, and earned my teaching license from MSU Denver and my master’s from UNC.
In our art room, students explore history and current issues through art, working with both traditional and creative materials. I believe every student is an artist and can use art to express themselves and think deeply. We grow as a community of artists, learning to trust our own voices
“Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.” - Pablo Picasso
