In addition to being a teacher, Betsy has also been an art consultant, an art gallery director, and she founded a nonprofit arts organization for children. A Master Facilitator for an international initiative called The Virtues Project, Betsy leads the Meaningful Conversations group at Robson. She and her husband Pete have two daughters and five grandchildren. They discovered Robson on a road trip during COVID and moved here shortly thereafter.
Come join your fellow book lovers and aspiring and published authors on Friday, Nov. 20 in the Fireside Room. Betsy will share from her book and address why it’s important for all of us to leave a legacy for family. We gather around 10 a.m. for conversation and mingling with Betsy’s presentation set to begin at 10:30 a.m. Hope to see you there!
