Gallery Route One invites artists to apply and participate in the Artists in the Schools Program for the upcoming academic year.

Artists approach the programs’ theme for the year through the lens of art making and art processes. The goal is to deepen the students’ understanding of their relationship with the environment around them while exposing them to new and different art practices. Our talented teaching artists come from West Marin as well as the Greater Bay Area. In addition to supplementing art classes the artists are encouraged when possible make relevant curriculum connections with Math, Science, English etc.

Occasionally, a pairing will be made between an artist and a naturalist, writer, or poet for additional creative exploration and enrichment. Artists are sent to all the schools of West Marin serving TK- 12th grades.

The culmination of the program ends with a wonderful exhibition of all the students’ artwork at Toby’s Art Gallery in Point Reyes Station in June.

Traveling to schools in West Marin is required.

Visual Artists, Poets, Writers, Storytellers, Performance and Musicians encouraged to apply!
