“HerStory: Honoring The Women in Our Lives and In History” a Juried Competition and Exhibition. March is Women’s History Month and we will celebrate the women who have influenced our lives both personally and throughout history – the nurturers, the influencers, the trailblazers, the rebels.

JUROR Susan Goetz Zwirn is the Director and Professor of Art Education at Hofstra University. Susan teaches courses in arts education, studio art, museums, and research on the brain and learning. She grew up in Port Washington, Long Island and is honored to have raised and educated her children there.

Her work reflects a strong sense of place and mood, having been inspired by travel as well as her local surroundings. Susan’s paintings have been exhibited nationally and received many awards; much of her art can be found in personal and corporate collections in the US and abroad.
