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.

Carving Into Curriculum by Michael Mirabile

Program description

Do you have a book you are exploring with your students in Language Arts or an historical event you are studying in Social Studies? However you would like to delve more deeply into your curriculum, Michael can take you there through his artistry.  Let your students create a visual exploration of your unit of study through the art of linoleum block printmaking. In this two-day (or 90-minute) workshop, Michael will design a printmaking workshop based around a topic you are discussing in class. Students will research and design an idea for their prints based off a topic you would like them to explore more deeply. Once students have their designs they will carve them out on blocks and produce an actual print as their final product.
