ProjectArt Miami is the leading out-of-school program for underserved K-12 students, providing innovative, creative, and effective teaching visual arts in partnership with public libraries, in turn activating their infrastructure and encouraging reading. ProjectArt defines underserved as those lacking adequate access to art programs and cultural opportunities because of economic conditions, race or ethnic background, geography, disability, abuse, or neglect.
In addition to free art classes, we serve the artist community by hiring them to teach, develop their teaching skills, while giving them time and space to create new artwork to share with their fellow artist residents and students.
