Picture This! with Richard Hight is a powerful, artfully crafted presentation for educators and the education industry. Richard combines speaking with a live artistic performance that engages and inspires. He’s worked with hundreds of school districts across the nation to share his creative and motivational message with teachers, administrators, and students. PLUS, a huge bonus for your school – after the presentation, you keep the 6-foot artwork on canvas that he creates ESPECIALLY for your event.
With budget cutbacks, standardized testing, and a relentless pressure to perform, you in the education community are forced to accomplish more with less. NOW, more than ever, it’s vital you see the invisible—possibilities, promises, and payoffs—so you can do the impossible. Richard’s presentation is a highly practical program that inspires and maps out a clear vision for making a difference. By combining art, music, and the spoken word, he creates a dynamic message for your educators that has staying power. The original artwork that you keep after the presentation is concluded is a visual reminder of the life-changing moments your team will share together. There are events you attend, but this is one you experience!

“Richard’s personal approach, combined with the art creation, made for an exceptional experience for our staff.

I would highly recommend Richard for motivating large groups of people to think positively and enthusiastically accept the challenges that they encounter in work and everyday life.” Ann L. Caine, Ed.D., Superintendent, Stillwater, MT
“As an administrator, I have struggled over the years to find speakers who are truly motivational and deliver the kind of message I want to my staff. After about 5 minutes of listening to Mr. Hight speak I knew I had succeeded in my search. Not only did he keep the entire staff engaged, he delivered a thoughtful and uplifting message. We had some teachers laughing, some crying but all were connected and engaged. I have had constant compliments from our staff thanking me for bringing in such a great speaker. I would highly recommend Mr. Hight to any school or organization. He will provide an experience your staff will love.” – Mr. Leon Ashlock, Superintendent, Nowata, OK
