Specialty Programs

Arts Horizons is committed to providing equitable opportunities in the arts, and we strive to build creative and engaged citizens of all ages and backgrounds. Nearly all our arts education workshops and live performance assemblies can be adapted to serve special populations including early childhood, students and adults with special needs, and seniors. We also offer a range of family workshops to engage the whole family in creative artmaking together! In addition, we have professional development workshops for educators to dive deeper into arts integration and curriculum development.

Our Specialty Programs are curriculum-based and aligned with state and national learning standards while adhering to principles of differentiated instruction, learning through multiple modalities, and Universal Design for Learning. Arts Horizons is also firmly committed to providing special programs that center neurodiversity and culturally responsive pedagogy.

Specialty Programs are available as in-person, virtual, and hybrid sessions, and they can be customized to suit your program budget, needs, and structures. Workshops may be offered as a single session, a short series of workshops, or as an Artist-in-Residence program lasting several weeks. Our professional teaching artists and dedicated staff will work closely with your educators and administrators to develop a Specialty Program that is right for you and your participants!
