Artist In Residence

In addition to art lessons created by teachers in their individual classrooms, the P.T.A. funds art lessons throughout the year in every classroom. The Artist in Residence Program provides quality, equitable and consistent art lessons led by professional teaching artists to all West Woodland students. Recent residencies include dance with the Massive Monkees, comics with David Lasky (Writers in the Schools), ceramic masks with Amaranta Sandys, and portraits inspired by local female leaders with Valencia Caroll (Arts Impact).
