For Educators

Gateway to the Arts meets the needs of educators by offering several different levels of support and training in arts integration. From single day Act 48 workshops on integrating the arts into the curriculum to partnership programs that span multiple years, we aim to provide educators with the tools to make arts integral to education, so that they can inspire children to become lifelong learners and participants in the arts.

Gateway to the Arts’ Western Pennsylvania Wolf Trap program provides innovative arts-in-education services for children ages 3-5, their teachers and families.

The Gateway Arts in Education Partnership is a residency program based on a model of arts integration that uses a work of art as a text for learning.

Professional development is offered in conjunction with residency programs, as customized in-services for educators and as single day Act 48 workshops.

    A Whirlwind of Collaboration

    Two densely-scheduled days this November marked the fruition of a collaborative project two years in the making, designed by Gateway to the Arts and the School of Music at Carnegie Mellon University. The goal was to assist the graduate chamber music ensembles at CMU in developing dynamic outreach programs for public school students grades K-12. Funded in part by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts, project coordinators Lisa Hoitsma of Gateway and Dr. Natalie Ozeas of CMU enlisted the expertise of the Grammy-nominated African-American woodwind quintet, Imani Winds, known world-wide for their high-quality outreach programming that focuses on excellent musicianship, audience participation and repertoire.
