ARTS EDUCATION RESOURCE DIRECTORY

Looking for arts learning activities for your school, organization, or event?
Check out our online Arts Education Resource Directory*

Search the Directory.

Find visual or performing artists for a residency or workshop. Look for arts related field trips and performances for your students!

The Arts Education Resource Directory is a searchable database of visual and performing artists and their arts education programs. The Directory lists workshops, residencies, performances, and field trips for all ages with contact information for booking the artists.

All the teaching artists listed in the Directory have been screened for their experience and skills by the Arts Commission through a panel of regional working and teaching artists. You will see on their listings that they have been approved for either K-12 Arts or Community Arts, or both.  

* The Arts Education Resource Directory is intended only to serve as a screened resource for schools and community organizations looking for arts education programming.  The Arts Commission does not offer any booking services for the artists listed in the Directory. Please contact the artists directly.

A Note to Current Directory and Pre-Qualified Pool Artists
A re-designed Arts Education Directory will be rolling out soon!
