    Learning in the Arts

    Through the Learning in the Arts program, Allied Arts provides grants to bring artists into Hamilton County public schools. Resident artists work in partnership with the classroom teacher to produce an educational experience for students, which is both intellectually challenging and creatively stimulating, and to assist students to meet Fine Arts Standards and are connected to the classroom curriculum.
