Meet the Teachers  at Middlesex County YAM (Carteret, New Jersey)

Kristen Barth
I, Kristen Barth have been teaching students in Woodbridge Township for over two decades on both the middle and high school levels. I am a practicing artist who has exhibited in various group exhibits in New Jersey. I believe that when students are exposed to my artistic expressions using various mediums, it inspires them to create more whole-heartedly. Art is a process that can only be fostered through patience, practice, and passion. In my spare time, I believe in using the practical side of my artistic training to make my personal spaces into "art projects", as my son calls them.
