For more than 20 years, Arts Impact has brought learning to life through art for students of various backgrounds and abilities.
For many children, learning is more than textbooks and tests.
Our arts integration programs blend visual art, music, and movement with core academic subjects, helping students connect with the material in deeper, more lasting ways.
By engaging diverse learning styles, we create classrooms where every child can thrive.
Why Now?
Your support is more important than ever.
Public arts funding is increasingly uncertain, and many schools are facing tighter budgets. With your help, we can continue providing high-quality, creative learning experiences that would otherwise be out of reach for many students.
Why We're Doing It
Our main partner, the Cleveland Metropolitan School District, serves students with the highest poverty rate of any major U.S. city. Many students have limited access to the arts in their schools and neighborhoods.
We are working to close that gap by delivering joyful, hands-on programs that integrate the arts with academic learning.
These residencies help students engage deeply, build confidence, and develop the skills they need to succeed in school and in life.
We measure success by listening closely to students, teachers, and our artist-educators and by tracking learning with pre- and post-assessments across grades 3 to 8.
Thanks to supporters like you, we've impacted the lives of over 50,000 students so far. With your help, we can reach even more!
