Anita Williams

January 13 – March 9, 2025

 

Anita grew up at the southern New Jersey shore between the pine barrens and the salt marsh. She then moved to York County, Pennsylvania, 35 years ago.

Anita earned her Bachelors in Art Education at Millersville University. She taught Art to high school and elementary students at the Spring Grove Area School District for 15 years. While teaching, she went on to earn an M.S. in Education from Wilkes University and an MFA in Visual Arts from Wilson College. She decided to retire from teaching in June 2019 to pursue her art. She has been working as a full-time artist ever since.

Anita exhibits her art at local and regional juried exhibits. She won two major awards in 2020. Despite the limitations of Covid-19 restricting most artists to online exhibitions, she won Best of Show at the Yorkfest Adult Juried Exhibition and an Award of Excellence for the Art of Healing at Manhattan Arts International.

Although she retired from teaching at the public schools, Anita still loves to teach. She has been teaching Painting classes at the York Art Association and Adams County Council of the adults to adults since January of 2020. She also taught an online Art Appreciation class at Wilson College over the summer.

Meet the Artist with Anita Williams will be held at the Out Door Country Club on Friday, January 17th from 5:30-6:30pm.
