Art Appreciation Sign Up

Art Appreciation is a great way to spend time in your child's classroom! We assign you an artist, provide background materials, art examples and suggested hands-on projects. You'll work with your child's teacher to schedule and present a 30-minute lesson in the classroom. Lessons take place once per quarter, for a total of four lessons per grade.

The Art Appreciation program is not designed to teach art, but to share an appreciation of artists and artistic expressions of all kinds
