Arts Office - City of Carlsbad Education - Arts Education: Three-Part-Art Gallery Education Program
The City of Carlsbad's "Three-Part-Art" education program, organized and managed by the Cultural Arts Office, is designed to introduce schoolchildren to the experience of interacting with and learning from original works of art in a museum setting. In "Part One," a curriculum guide, connecting into the California Visual and Performing Arts Standards and the current third and fourth grade curricula, is sent to teachers to help them prepare their classes for "Part Two," an on-site visit to the City's Cannon Art Gallery to tour the exhibition with an artist/educator. Following the tour, "Part Three" is a related hands-on arts activity, led by another artist/educator. Through Three-Part-Art, children begin to learn some of the basics of the art vocabulary, and most importantly, that galleries and museums can be welcoming places to learn in new and exciting ways.
