FES is working on writing a grant to bring educational experiences in the arts. Please see the description below.
Artist in Residence (AIR) grants provide funding for public schools to invite juried teaching artists to lead rigorous educational experiences in the arts. Visiting teaching artists support deeper learning of arts competencies, STEAM projects, interdisciplinary arts integration, and broadening access to culturally diverse artistic practices. Learning through the arts develops creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration and supports school goals for wellness and social and emotional learning. Grants can be used to fund residencies in all arts disciplines including dance, theatre, media, music, visual arts, craft, and creative writing.
