My undergrad degree was in fine arts..went back later
and took additional courses (6)to receive art
certification (K-12). I was able to teach art during
this time with a temporary certificate. But that
depends on your state and if you are teaching in
private or public. Private tends to be a little more
lenient with certifications and public sometimes will
offer waivers till you get certified. This all varies
from state to state. Check out these two sites, they
might be helpful.
