In-School Residencies
Bringing High-Quality Arts Education to Students
Through Long-Term Residencies
A4LSD brings high-quality arts education to students in San Diego County through our long-term Residency Program. Residencies bring consistency and depth to the learning process in visual art, dance, music, theatre and literary arts.
We connect professional Teaching Artists with Classroom Teachers for 6 to 32 weeks in the context of a classroom or after-school program. Artists actively engage students in dynamic arts programs by cultivating their imagination, critical thinking, and other invaluable 21st Century Skills. We invite students to grow, discover unexpected talents, find their artistic voice, cultivate persistence, and shine artistically in front of their class, school, family, and community. Classroom teachers also benefit by having the opportunity to observe the teaching artist ‘in action’; teachers learn the art form as well as teaching strategies to leverage the art and to deepen learning.
