Artsmart New Mexico

Description

• ARTsmart is a 501c3 nonprofit that was founded in 1993. It provides more than 2,200 hours of instruction in the visual arts to the youth of New Mexico each year. Since its inception, more than $4,422,000 has been invested by ARTsmart to subsidize student art programs and provide art materials for northern New Mexico youth. Another $63,000 in the ARTsmart Art Changes Lives Scholarship has been awarded to high school seniors to pursue the visual arts in college.As of 2013, the history of ARTsmart is entwined with that of Fine Art for Children and Teens (FACT), founded in 1990. In March 2013, ARTsmart merged its fundraising and organizational skills with FACTs award-winning programs. But the relationship of the two organizations goes back about a decade, when ARTsmart, recognizing the parallel goals of both organizations, began distributing a portion of the proceeds from its annual ARTfeast fundraiser to FACT.Today, ARTsmart provides art materials and year-round visual arts instruction for elementary through high school students. ARTsmart programs are conducted independently, in northern New Mexico public schools, charter schools such as New Mexico School for the Arts, and in collaboration with art organizations such as SITE Santa Fe. ARTsmart provides accredited instructors, lesson plans, materials, and scholarships. Through the proprietary FACT method, students learn art history and vocabulary, watch techniques, do hands-on artmaking, participate in positive feedback critiques, and exhibit their art.ARTsmart is governed by an all-volunteer board from the community. As a working board, ARTsmart board officers and members are actively engaged in all aspects of fundraising and programs.
