For more than a decade, Reach to Teach has brought working artists into Richmond classrooms, giving students hands-on time with real materials and real encouragement. This year the program returns bigger than ever.
Eleven years of art in schools
Since 2015, teaching artists have led sessions in local schools, reaching more than 900 students. The idea is simple: access to the arts should not depend on where you live or what you can afford.
Watching a child realize they can make something beautiful is exactly why we do this.
