Gateway to the Arts transforms the lives and education of children through active participation in the arts and inspires students and educators to become lifelong learners and participants in the arts by making the arts integral to education.
Artist, educator, writer, musician, and master storyteller Amir Rashidd likes “to go and fit in with the kids.” Before starting his creative arts residencies, Amir likes to visit and get to know the young people and adults with whom he’ll be working. It sets the atmosphere for an engaging and fun experience.
