EXPRESSIONS This school outreach project offers ongoing educational support to both students and teachers. Classroom activities are designed to meet individual school needs and focus on integrating the curriculum via the arts. Monthly visual arts activities connecting literature, science and social studies are presently provided to a core group of 3,000 elementary students in grades kindergarten through fifth. Additionally, an estimated 6,000 students will see stage productions presented by WINGS, the Lynn Meadows Discovery Center’s performing arts group, Gulf Coast Youth Symphony and/or Quota Club.
HEAD TO TOE This wellness pilot program for pre-school through second grades focuses on nutrition, fitness, physical safety and disease prevention. Stuffee, a 6 foot canvas ambassador of healthy choices, can travel to area schools with a museum educator for $125 a program. Materials can be checked out free of charge to area educators.
