ART MATTERS
The Art Matters youth arts project is led by a group of teaching artists who bring authentic, engaging arts experiences to at-risk Albuquerque youth. Content is designed to engage participants in art making, with a focus on social justice, whole-person health, community, joy, and creative engagement at the core of our process.

ART WITH CLASS
Albuquerque Museum partners with a Title One Elevated Arts elementary school in the Albuquerque Public Schools to host an Artist-in-Residence program at the school. The artist works with students in their art class to create artwork which will be displayed during one of the Museum’s after-hours Third Thursday events.
