What is Art Vistas?
|
Overview and Mission 
We've designed a fun and exciting art program for Kindergarten through 8th grade. Our multifaceted curriculum exposes students to art history and technique. By engaging in critical thinking, cultural exposure, open dialogue, and artistic experimentation, we grow creative skills and confidence.
See "What we teach" for more details. |
Turning Parent Volunteers into
Art Docents 
We re-engage and expose parent volunteers to the joy of art history and visual arts and provide comprehensive training and lesson plans.
No experience in art education or teaching needed. We foster creativity and connect the community through art. See "What does an Art Vista Docent actually do?" for more details. |
Full Program Ready to Use and Art Show
Art Vistas provides lesson plans, project templates, instructional videos, and training.
The art supplies are provided by your school. At the end of the year, the students' art projects can be displayed at an Art Show. |
Our Mission
We are a nonprofit, volunteer-lead organization delivering the finest art education to Kindergarten through 8th grade classrooms. Our multifaceted curriculum exposes students to art history and technique. By engaging in critical thinking, cultural exposure, open dialogue, and artistic experimentation, we grow creative skills and confidence.
We currently make art education available to more than 5,800 students in Union School District (creating more than 28,000 pieces of art each year), as well as surrounding school districts. Studies have shown that visual arts education helps elementary school children develop important motor, language, and social skills at a young age, and at later ages, helps students to perform better in other academic subjects, manage stress, motivate attendance and increase graduation rates.
However, there are many children who do not have opportunities for art education across the U.S.
Join us on our mission to bring the joy of art and grow creative confidence in children, everywhere.
Your gift will help us reach more children and provide opportunity for art they all deserve. Thanks for making a difference!
