Teaching Artists
Quante Thomas
Hi, my name is Quante Thomas! I was born and raised here in Baltimore. I love hip-hop dance and creating new choreography! I’m not grounded in any one form of art. I’m open to trying new dance styles and using different mediums in crafts. I’m inspired by my city, its unique dance style and culture!

Born and raised in the Memphis, TN area, Susan completed her Bachelor of Fine Arts and teaching certification at Birmingham-Southern College. Her journey as an educator began in Birmingham, then led her to teaching art internationally. She later earned her MFA in community arts at Maryland Institute College of Art, and feels lucky to set roots in Baltimore.
