“Bernard’s passion for learning resonates through this on-point presentation of accessible arts education. When difference is the given—the expected—there is a way in for every learner.”

Jessica Hoffmann Davis, Retired Bauman and Bryant Senior Lecturer in the Arts in Education, Harvard Graduate School of Education, Cambridge, Massachusetts

“Bernard provides clear, systematic strategies for working with all students in arts education. This book is a gift to the arts-education community and their students.”

Ann-Bailey Lipsett, Special Education Consultant, Lexington, Virginia

“Students with disabilities often have highly developed skills in the arts but lack success because they can’t access instruction. Bernard offers educators powerful tools to provide access and help students overcome barriers in arts education.”
