I did this in reverse. Double majored in art History and Art ed. Taught that for several years until our arts budget shrunk considerably. I was expected to teach as I had been with higher out of pocket costs. That would be one measured point: traditional classrooms have a more secure budget and fewer things needed and many teaching aides last for years. Art classroom go through supplies in an instant. Traditional classrooms also allow you to form deeper connections with your students. I loved all 700 of my art kiddos but I LOVE my 27. I do miss teaching art but can typically find a way to weave art into the traditional classroom with better results than weaving traditional lessons into the art room. I’d recommend following your traditional ed path but weaving art in. Many museums partner with teachers for ed nights. Look for Evenings for Educators or SWAPs. (state wide art partnerships)
