About Us

Art in Action is a nonprofit organization dedicated since 1982 to bringing visual arts education to the classroom. We believe that a quality art education is critical for every student’s preparation for success in the 21st century, and we actively assist schools in implementing a comprehensive, standards-based visual art program.

The Art in Action Program enriches the lives of thousands of students each year in public and private schools and other environments through an engaging, hands-on curriculum that teaches art history, art appreciation, and art techniques.

Today hundreds of schools around the country teach the Art in Action curriculum. Art in Action continues grow, bringing art education to more communities, more schools, more classrooms, and more children each year.
