Customizable Artist Residencies for PK-12 Students in Ohio’s Schools
The TeachArtsOhio (TAO) program brings schools and community organizations together with teaching
artists to share engaging, personal, high-quality arts learning experiences. Engagements can vary from
short introductory exposures lasting as few as 10 days to in-depth immersive experiences spanning a
full school year. Creative and experienced teaching artists, through TAO grant awards, offer learners the
opportunity to participate in a unique creative process, bridge cultural differences, develop fresh ways
of learning through the arts, and realize lasting benefits from personal contact and collaboration with
professional artists who are experienced in working with school age children and youth. TAO is a school’s
opportunity to work with a professional teaching artist into a school to supplement arts instruction.
Through a collaborative effort between teachers, artists, and administrators, the program supports indepth, sustained arts instruction and does not reduce a school’s commitment to the arts.
