Any Given Child Programs

Any Given Child Sacramento is currently presenting three kinds of programs to help connect every student K-8 to arts experiences during the school day.

1. Professional development workshops for arts educators, classroom teachers and school leaders

2. Arts exposure experiences, presenting visual arts, dance, music,  theatre and photography to students through class visits, school assemblies and field trips.

3. Arts residencies, connecting community arts educators to classrooms for a 6-8 session partnership whereby students learn about arts and use arts to more deeply experience a given topic in math, science, language arts or social studies.
