Funding

Our standard 8-week in-the-classroom residency is $500 (including instructor and supplies). You can “Adopt A Classroom” for $500.00. Click HERE to Donate Four week and single lessons are also available. Our lessons are cross-curricular and support the California content standards. Many of them can be tailored and grouped to work with a particular unit of study, i.e. zoology, social studies, history, language arts, sciences, etc. They are adaptable to a wide range of grade levels from elementary through secondary grades and beyond, including community groups and programs. Programs are supported in a variety of ways, including school and PTA funds, grants, or personal donations from an individual or group of parents/grandparents. Our program is taught by professional artists who have extensive educational experience. We feel that this criterion helps to guide the student with a deeper understanding of the art making process. For more information, or to arrange a residency in your neighborhood, call 805.653.2501 or email [email protected].
