Art in the Schools

The Art in the Classroom program sponsored by The Andrew & Laura McCain Art Gallery puts a piece of original art in a classroom for a 2-week period in the 2021/22 school year.  It also provides the teachers with accompanying resources that are loaded with suggestions for teaching and learning, all of which are cross-curricular in nature. Currently, the package including Colin Smith’s One Kilometre of Florenceville is completed and in use by local classrooms. Two other packages are in production – Irene Tompkins’ Landscapes and Florals and Public Art – Featuring the Maquette for Stephen Hutchings’ Marich Pole.
