Partnerships
Past Outreach Projects:
- OPVA
The Ohio Partnership for the Visual Arts (OPVA) has provided professional
development opportunities for teachers in comprehensive arts education,
curriculum development and implementation, and leadership development.
- Transforming Education Through the Arts Challenge
The National Arts Education Consortium and the Ohio Partnership for the
Visual Arts, with funding from the Walter H. Annenberg Foundation,
the J. Paul Getty Trust, with additional support from the Ohio Arts
Council and the Department of Art Education at the Ohio State University,
has embarked on a unique national initiative in arts education reform,
the Transforming Education Through the Arts Challenge. This project
is designed to assist schools committed to using comprehensive approaches
to arts education integrated with whole-school reform strategies to
improve student achievement. The main goal of this national initiative
is to demonstrate the ways in which the power of the arts can transform
the learning environment in our nation's schools and the lives of our
students and teachers.
