In Schools
At ArtsSmarts we generate and sustain
innovative school partnerships centred around the arts to push the
boundaries of learning, redefine the environment of schooling and
re-imagine student success.
Last year, more than 27,230 students in 132 different communities
experienced ArtsSmarts.
This was the result of the efforts of our 17 partners who
brought 1,794 artists and teachers together to collaborate on the
development of 281 different ArtsSmarts projects in schools across
the country.
Our unique teaching and learning approach is brought to schools
through the provincial, regional or local partnerships we
cultivate. Some partners are from small rural communities and
others from large urban centres. Some are locally focussed, while
others are provincial. Our partners use our model as a starting
point to tailor ArtsSmarts according to their local needs,
resources, vision for creative learning and educational outcomes
for students.
