Inspiring Creativity: The Magic of School Visits for Illustrators

April Hartmann recently visited a local elementary school and presented her book The Dream Keepers to an enthusiastic group of students. School visits offer illustrators a unique opportunity to connect directly with the next generation of dreamers and creators. Sharing your journey, techniques, and stories in person is not only deeply fulfilling but also sparks inspiration in young minds.


For many children, meeting a professional illustrator in person is a magical experience that makes their own creative aspirations feel attainable. These visits create lasting memories and show kids the real-world impact of art and storytelling. By engaging with students, illustrators play a vital role in nurturing creativity, confidence, and the belief that their dreams are within reach.



“I ❤️ your book” … priceless! 🥺🥰
