An accomplished artist, Karen Neubert celebrates many years' experience in her professional network, and has been noted for achievements, leadership qualities and her credentials and successes in her field.

A highly regarded and experienced educator and artist, Ms. Neubert began exhibiting her work in group shows in the late 1950s and early '60s. At the same time, she pursued a career in arts education, serving as an art instructor for the Sequoyah School, the Pasadena Art Museum, and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) from 1964-68. From 1965-72 she taught and was the Chair of the Art Department for the Westridge School for Girls. In 1977 with the aid of an Artists-in-the-Schools grant, she founded the Children's Art Studio and taught for the Pacific Oaks College and Children's School, where she was Artist-in-Residence, and faculty for twenty years. She was awarded numerous grants from the California Arts Council, for education in the arts.

Even though her career has been filled with highlights, Ms. Neubert is proud of receiving the Junior Art Council Award from LACMA in 1959, and a two-person show at the Pasadena Art Museum in 1962. In 2017 she participated in "Now Be Here #1," a Hauser-Wirth gathering of 800 active women artists working in Los Angeles.

In 2018 Ms. Neubert was among printmakers selected for "Air, Water and Earth," at the Muckenthaler Cultural Center, Fullerton, and "Remembrance: the Faces & Places," at the the historic Southwest Museum. Her work has also been featured in print, in L.A. Rising: SoCal Artists Before 1980, by Lyn Kienholz (2010), and Kindergarten Architecture: Space for the Imagination, by Mark Dudek (1995).
