ArtsSmarts is a national program that brings teachers, professional artists and students together to explore school curriculum in a way that engages even the most reluctant learners. Music, drama, dance and visual art are used as a vehicle to examine other subjects, which encourages critical thinking, collaboration and innovation...all key to 21st century learning. Creative exploration also plays a major role in boosting confidence in the classroom, which has limitless social benefits.

Help us introduce the ArtsSmarts concept to Guelph by supporting our one year pilot project. We are seeking mentorship and $10,000 to pay for artist/coordinator fees.
