Most of us remember that one teacher who inspired us to excellence, to go further, to dream. Dean Barber was one such teacher, and he inspired a generation of art students at Myers Park High School in Charlotte, NC.
Although he passed away several years ago from cancer, his inspiration lives on, and several of his graduates are organizing a fundraising campaign to establish a scholarship in his name. The goal is to continue to reward excellence in the arts in Charlotte, and encourage young students to pursue their artistic goals beyond the High School level.
