School Programs

These programs will be available beginning in spring 2022. Contact our Education Department at learn@illinoisartstation.org for scheduling and capacity information.

School Programs are designed to highlight key curricular areas and are categorized by grade. All experiences are unique and IAS educators will customize aspects of each visit to meet the curricular needs of classroom teachers.

  • Early Expressions (Grades PK-2): Experiences focus on social and emotional development and early literacy skills.
  • Puzzling Perspectives (Grades 3-5): Interdisciplinary lessons that highlight the intersection of the arts, math, and science.
  • Visual Conversations (Grades 6-8): Students will explore the language of the visual arts and practice using and creating it themselves.
  • Art and Us (Grades 9-12): Students will examine how art reflects and influences the world around them – how it communicates and can spark change.
