Teachers can register online to have a Nova Scotian artist lead an art activity with students, either in person or through livestream, depending on location. Registration opens each Fall and Winter.

ArtReach workshops include an artist-produced activity plan and any necessary visual resources, including slideshows or colour handouts.

All costs for artist sessions are covered by ArtReach. If specialized art supplies beyond usual classroom supplies are required, they will be shipped directly to the school.

Workshop information and registration are available on the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia website: https://agns.ca/experience/for-educators/school-outreach/(link is external).

Free lesson plans and accompanying visual resources for teacher-led classroom art activities, with suggestions for links to curriculum are also available.
