Arts for Learning

Arts for Learning

Arts for Learning engages children with the arts by bringing teaching artists into schools and communities. We believe in the arts and their ability to transform education. We believe that when learning is enriched with the arts, students get more out of school.

Arts for Learning offers programs in various forms – including performances, hands-on workshops, and in-depth residencies. Our programs connect the arts with the curriculum to supplement learning.

Our programs occur wherever learning takes place, including afterschool programs, libraries, community centers, juvenile detention facilities, and hospitals.

Music Composition by Classical Music Indy

Program description

This program combines visual art, graphic score notation, and music composition to get students sharing their creative voices. Led by a team of professional musicians, students will create visual stories as they learn about rhythm and pitch, and later delve into music notation. A combination of music performance and hands-on activity allows students to take their visual story and translate it into music. By the end, students craft their very own music compositions, which are then performed by a professional musician!
