MACA and McDowell County Schools: Mountain Arts Program
|
|
The Mountain Arts Program (MAP) is a long-standing partnership between McDowell County Schools and McDowell Arts Council Association. With the goal of supplementing regular arts education in schools, MACA pairs teaching artists of all mediums from across our state to classrooms in McDowell County for week-long residencies to enrich the lives and outcomes for our kids.
In Summer 2021 this program hosted 5 concurrent teaching residencies for K-12 classes during Summer Enrichment classes including origami, painting, photography, music, poetry, and theatre. |

The N.C. Arts Council created the Grassroots Arts Program to increase the state's already growing number of local arts councils and to help establish North Carolina as a leader in the national community arts movement.
Grassroots funds support the arts council and local arts organizations. |
