What are ArtLabs?

• A gathering of job-alike teachers, sharing and learning from one another as they develop their arts integration practice
• An opportunity for teachers to engage in protocol-supported reflective dialogue and collaboration
• An inquiry into, analysis of and reflection upon student work and thinking
• A compensated, self-scheduled practitioner-driven professional learning experience

What Teachers are Saying ...

• "Love the ArtLab concept. Helps everyone to practice the approaches and creates a collaborative space for us to be learners when we share our projects."
• "I found the ArtLabs to be especially valuable. I loved the opportunity to share ideas, plan lessons/projects for the coming week (or two), and then be able to come back together to share again. This is something that we don't get to do enough! I also liked the fact that they centered, somewhat, around the workshops themselves.... So, we actually had the opportunity to try things out and then share/discuss/follow-up. I loved getting to work with other teachers at my grade-level, too.
• "I really loved the ArtLabs and learning about what others were trying."
