K-12 arts education materials for visual arts, dance, music and drama/ theater are provided through the Arts Resources for Teachers and Students (A.R.T.S.), a dynamic, web-based resource designed for use by teachers, students and their parents.

Teachers will find information on standards, curriculum, lesson plans and assessment for arts education, as well as lists of arts resources, arts organizations and arts advocacy groups.

Students and their parents will find visual arts units on subjects including expressionism: an introduction to art and painting, political cartooning, Navajo pottery and sculpture, plus lists of great arts-oriented sites for kids, arts resources for students in the metropolitan Phoenix area, and Tucson areas.

Faculty, students and staff from ASU’s Herberger College of the Arts manage A.R.T.S as part of Artswork: The Kax Herberger Center for Children & the Arts, but input from users is critical. Please contact us and let us know what types of additional information would be most helpful to you. We would also appreciate your contributions so that we can feature your lesson plans and the work of your students on the site.

We welcome your feedback.
