ART FOR EDUCATION at WAAM builds community, learning and art-making experiences through collaboration and outreach with schools, artists, educators and families.
Over 700 students from kindergarten to college participate in our in-school programs, museum visits and family days annually and exhibit artwork in our YOUTH EXHIBITION SPACE (YES), a gallery dedicated to providing young artists the opportunity to exhibit their artwork alongside our region’s contemporary artists and works from our Permanent Collection. Art for Education at WAAM hosts interactive educational programs, special exhibits, and community engagement projects and partners with libraries, historical societies, regional school districts and community organizations to engage students, families and our community in the arts.
