Bring Art in Action to your school virtually!

Art in Action values the relationships we have with students and the wider school communities we have worked in. During these difficult times we have come up with creative ideas on how our program can still benefit students. We have developed online live classes that are curriculum-based where students can participate along with the teacher, interact, and are able to ask questions throughout the art-making process. Safety is a priority for everyone and these virtual classes in schools would include: A live class done through Zoom, students can see the teacher, the art making process, ask questions and interact throughout Each student will receive individualized art-kits with all the soft supplies needed to create the project Participating in the art-making process can have a very positive effect on mental health and the tactile experience of working with art materials is a great way for students to engage in kinesthetic activities. We have hundreds of projects to choose from and each virtual class is curriculum based and uses the principles and elements of art and design. Please contact us at artinactiontoronto@gmail.com for more information.
