With support from the California Arts Council, the San Francisco Arts Education Project (SFArtsED) will collaborate with Bret Harte Elementary School and Principal Jeremy Hilinski in Bayview Hunters Point to produce a robust series of multi-week in-school residencies with a exceptional roster of teaching artists for grades K-5. Residencies will include Chorus with Sara Williams (grades K-5), Visual Arts with Wendy Robushi (grade 3), and Dance with Tom Mayock (grade 2).
SFArtsED’s programs and services are designed to focus on community and neighborhood partnerships; creating spaces for young artists of color; place-based arts education; supporting emergent community-centered inquiry; and restorative practices. SFArtsED is recognized for our in-school AIR programs spanning the spectrums of performing and visual arts. In addition to in-school residencies, out-of-school programs thrive year-round including SFArtsED Summer (an annual 6-week arts camp); SFArtsED Players, a musical theater pre-professional repertory ensemble; Big Blue After School program in Glen Park; and Artists in Residence @ MSP with projects curated and presented in our 1800 square foot multidisciplinary gallery and arts education resource lab within the Minnesota Street Project campus.
