The Scoop: In lieu of our 2019-2020 mural unveiling events (canceled due to COVID-19), we adjusted our budget to support more artists and science art fusion works. The purpose of this call is to celebrate a virtual unveiling of Science to Street Art 2019-2020 Murals around the city of Madison through the production of new art and community activity creations related to mural themes. Our goal is to work collaboratively with artists to provide content that supports connection, the enjoyment of art and science, and prevents spread of COVID-19 while respecting social distancing practices.

How Do You Keep the Artist in Art Educator?
Remember back when you were in college? Maybe that was last year or maybe 20 or more years ago or somewhere in between. Either way, I'm guessing you were an artist and an art major before you decided to become a teacher. For many of us continuing to make art while also dedicating time to being an educator can be challenging. For others making art is how we survive being an educator. Regardless of where you land on this spectrum this page is devoted to pushing you in new directions with your own art-making. The goal is to inform you of opportunities for exhibits, workshops, or challenges that will help keep your artist-educator tools creative and dripping with enthusiasm.
If you know of a creative workshop, challenge or exhibit you think folks would be interested in fill in the form here and we will do our best to add it to this page. Please include an image, a link to the details about the opportunities and any other pertinent information.
