ARTS IN EDUCATION

Honeywell Arts In Education provides nearly 50,000 arts-infused opportunities for youth. With your gift, you support these important experiences which, in turn, provide tremendous benefit to student learning. When you give to Honeywell Arts & Entertainment, you invest in students and their future. 

The arts have a proven, substantial impact during formative years by improving academic performance, motor skills, confidence, creativity, focus, and collaboration. 

Honeywell Arts In Education is a collection of programs created for educators to reap these developmental benefits in the classroom. Programs are offered at little or no cost to the schools, allowing all students to participate regardless of socioeconomic situations.

Last year, Honeywell education programs provided nearly 51,000 arts-infused learning opportunities for students in 85 schools in 14 counties. With the recent addition of virtual offerings, the program is in an exciting state of exponential growth!

Arts In Education programs are made possible by the generous supporters of The Honeywell Foundation. To learn more about how you can support Education, contact Sarah See at 260.274.1431 or by email.

EDUCATION PROGRAMS

Steve Seskin: Bullying Prevention through Songwriting

Grammy-nominated Nashville songwriter Steve Seskin presents bullying prevention programs through the art of songwriting. Steve's interactive workshops and assemblies engage students by combining original songs (written by the students!) with an overlying message of acceptance and inclusion.

Visual Thinking Strategies

VTS is a nationally-recognized program that uses visual images and facilitated, student-centered discussions to practice the art of drawing inferences and supporting them with evidence. Participating in VTS helps students strengthen their critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and writing skills.  Learn more about VTS

Arts Integration

The Arts Integration approach refers to how something is being taught rather than what is being taught. Integration modules and resources adhering to curriculum standards are provided to participating educators.

CommUNITY Arts

CommUNITY Arts is a multi-week collaboration between Honeywell Arts In Education and Manchester Community Schools. Teaching artists visit English Language Learner and Spanish 4 classrooms weekly, inspiring students to give voice to their individual stories through visual art and storytelling.

Art Shows & Banner Contests

A complimentary component to school art classes, exhibits and contests featuring original student artwork are held throughout the school year. Exhibits are held in the Honeywell Center's Clark Gallery and on-site in schools, and include celebration receptions for students and families.

Student Matinees

Page-to-Stage Student Matinees bring literature to life by national touring companies. Matinees are held during the school day and take place on Honeywell theater stages.

Media Arts Program

The Media Arts Program is a collaboration between Heartland Career Center, a career and technical education program for high school students. Media Arts provides dual high school and college credit to students in video and sound production with a focus on preparing students for college and/or career.

Summer visual art and theatre camps are held each summer and led by qualified and talented artists and performers.
