During the past two years, RIDE has developed curriculum frameworks to provide guidance on implementation of education standards. The frameworks are part of an effort to develop relevant curricula. To create them, RIDE has drawn on the expertise of an interdisciplinary team of educators.
RIDE is now in the process of examining the current standards and building a comprehensive arts curriculum. An arts framework that will help all stakeholders understand the National Core Arts Standards and envision how they can be used for arts education.
RIDE’s Arts Education Coordinator Carolyn Bennett is asking for input, at inflection points during the process, from a diverse group of stakeholders and community members. RIDE is kicking off the framework process by asking you to assist in creating a vision for student success in the arts.
Please help RIDE by responding to their survey.
If you are interested in future feedback opportunities, include your contact information in your survey response.

Often, we are asked for an artist or artists referral in all different genres and disciplines. So, to increase and build a stronger and more robust directory of creatives for Rhode Island, we have partnered with CreativeGround, a dynamic directory of the region’s artists, creatives, culture bearers, arts and culture organizations and creative businesses.
Each month, we choose a genre of artist to showcase and send a reminder to either update or create a CreativeGround profile.
For March, Arts in Our Schools Month, we are calling on teaching artists.
When you create or update your CreativeGround profile, be sure to include:
- Your Rhode Island address
- Contact information
- Images of your work
- Website if available
- Once you get to the “Artists Only” section, make sure you select “Teaching Artist.”
Check out the introductory video to help get you started. If you want assistance in creating or updating your profile, you can schedule a virtual 30-minute meeting with someone from NEFA’s CreativeGround team by clicking here. Office hours are on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
CreativeGround is a free directory operated by the New England Foundation for the Arts (NEFA).
