Art Encounters Education Program Mission

To expose and connect area students to a broad base of arts and cultures through in-school and bus-in presentations, hands-on workshops, and in-depth artists residencies. Our goal is to introduce schools, students, and communities to artists and arts experiences from New Hampshire and around the world, which can be an integral part of school curricula and the overall learning process.
