ArtsBridge scholars not only bring the arts back into classrooms, they act as role models representing the attainability of higher education for K-12 students.

World Dance Day: World Dance Day is an annual ArtsBridge event celebrating the diversity of the United States through the performance of cultural dances.

Throughout the year, ArtsBridge scholars and their pupils study and practice dances from countries such as Mexico, Vietnam, Nigeria, and India and learn about their cultural context. In June, hundreds of pupils come to the university campus to perform together in front of an audience of parents, teachers, and community members.

World Dance is a rare opportunity for children to engage actively in learning about other cultures’ history and traditions while gaining an appreciation for the diversity of their own country.

Look Again - Digital Photography by ArtsBridge Pupils: “Look Again” was an ArtsBridge project involving three classes of elementary and middle school students. The project emphasized the acquisition of technical and artistic abilities in photography while integrating language arts and vocabulary skills. Digital cameras were provided to each class, and the students used photographic images to capture their interpretations of complex words such as “amorphous”, “community”, and “peace”.

Student work from each class was displayed in the “Look Again” exhibit at UC Irvine’s Beall Center for Art and Technology in June, 2003.

The Legend of Tanakakosh: The Legend of Tanakakosh was an ArtsBridge project created by three scholars from the University of Utah with fifth and sixth graders from Salt Lake City. The pupils themselves were responsible for every aspect of the musical, from developing the characters in the script to composing the musical score. Along with the development of reading and writing skills, this was an opportunity for the pupils to practice creative thinking, decision-making and collaboration. The University ArtsBridge scholars, who entered the project as artists, emerged as teachers who had learned how to bring out the best in their pupils.

Mr. Chris the Music Man: Chris Lancaster was an ArtsBridge scholar in the Spring of 2001 who worked with blind and deaf children at The Blind Children’s Learning Center in Orange County, California. The project touched each of the students’ lives in permanent ways, teaching them to perceive the world and express themselves through music. This was an exemplary project that not only impacted the children, but brought about a transformation of the ArtsBridge scholar as well.
