Affiliated with the national Young Audiences Arts for Learning network
Announcement: As we navigate a leadership transition and focus on financial planning, our summer programming will center on Arts, Care, and Connection. This intentional pause in other activities will help strengthen our foundation as we prepare to relaunch our core Right Brain Initiative this fall—supporting students, schools, and teaching artists with renewed energy and focus. Arts for Learning Northwest remains deeply committed to making arts and creativity accessible to all.
In this residency the students will explore the ideas of line, pattern, color mixing and basic form. They will also be introduced to several artists in history through simple exciting stories. These artists will help guide the students through the creative process in creating several “stand alone” and collaborative pieces. This is a great start to the world of visual art.
