Connecting the arts to the classroom — and the classroom to the arts.
Arts Integration is the practice of teaching core academic subjects through and alongside the arts. Rather than treating art as a separate subject, Arts Integration weaves creative expression into science, math, history, technology, and beyond — making learning more engaging, meaningful, and memorable for students.
Through partnerships with professional teaching artists and educators, our Arts Integration initiatives give students hands-on, creative experiences that strengthen critical thinking, deepen understanding, and inspire a lifelong love of both learning and the arts.
Our programs serve students K–12 across all nine parishes, bringing artists directly into classrooms throughout the school year.
WHY IT MATTERS
When students learn math through quilting, science through visual art, or history through movement and music, something shifts. They don't just memorize — they understand. Arts Integration meets students where they are and opens doors that traditional instruction sometimes cannot.
