ArtsSmarts
The ArtsSmarts program was launched in 1998 by the J.W. McConnell Family Foundation. It is a national initiative to promote the active engagement of young people in the arts through school-based projects. The program seeks to integrate art throughout standard school curriculum, to develop intellectual and communication skills in children through active participation in the arts, and to enhance appreciation for culture and art.
School Touring Program
The School Touring Program (STP) is an original program created through the Cultural Connections initiative. This program is distinct from ArtsSmarts and VAP in that it provides students with access to artistic experiences by providing financial assistance to professional artists and arts organizations for touring productions to more than one school. An artist or organization can only receive one STP grant per school year.
