The fabulous Art Program at Blackwell is run by our parent volunteers who prepare and deliver monthly art lessons in the classroom. The Art Program supports our docents and volunteers by providing regular trainings, access to fabulous curriculum and lesson plans and a well-stocked art room. In addition to conventional art resources, the Blackwell Art Program offers our classrooms the resources to have one clay lesson, and on fused glass lesson per year.
