Sue Dickens

Art Program Director

 
I was born and raised in Marion, Ohio, a lovely small town north of Columbus. My husband Tim and I live in downtown Cincinnati with our dog Stella. We have two children. Our daughter Virginia lives in New York city and our son John lives in Los Angeles. Now that Tim is retired, we enjoy traveling, visiting our kids, and all that this beautiful city has to offer. I started volunteering for BLOC in 2016 and I run the Studio Arts Programs in the Arts Building in Lower Price Hill.

I love what I do for BLOC because it combines two of my greatest passions - creativity and children.  What a magical combination! My vision for my role at BLOC is to continue getting to know the children in the neighborhood, the students at Oyler school, and grow with them by listening, laughing, crying, teaching - and creating. The possibilities are endless.  I would also like to see the Arts Building become a stable gathering place for the families in the neighborhood.  Right now it is a work in progress, but I know that our BLOC family will continue answering the needs and prayers of the neighborhood.

"Do not copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.  Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect." - Romans 12:2
