LVA's in-school programs provide engaging, in-depth arts experiences with a focus on project-based learning. We partner with teachers to help students explore curricular concepts though the lens of visual art, supporting the development of literacy and communication skills and enhancing student comprehension of core academic content. Projects are tailored to meet the specific needs of each classroom and serve to enrich not only the individual participants, but the school community as a whole.

LVA’s Community Outreach Programs:
Art for Kosair Kids® - LVA partnered with Kosair Charities and Fund for the Arts to bring programming to Home of the Innocents and Visually Impaired preschool for 28 weeks as part of Art for Kosair Kids®
The Future Is Now - A mentorship program that matches high school students with professional local artists in Louisville, Kentucky. We are excited to to continue our partnership with KyCAD!
Studio 2000 - A partnership between LVA and Louisville Metro Parks allowing high school students who are interested in pursuing visual art as a career to have the opportunity to work with professional artists in clay, fiber, mixed media, and mural art while also receiving a $500 stipend at the end of the eight-week session.
Picture Love - A partnership between LVA and Louisville Metro that provides opportunity for students at Louisville Metro Community Centers to learn photography basics by exploring image-making. The resulting images capture a meaningful moment in each participant’s personal history while painting a larger picture of Louisville as a whole.
School’s Out Art’s In - A partnership between the LVA, Fund for the Arts cultural partners and Metro Louisville Community Centers. The goal of School’s Out Art’s In is to make the arts accessible to children across Jefferson County by providing programming in summer camps at the 19 community centers administered by Louisville Metro Parks. Every summer, community centers program a variety of programs for neighborhood children; however, few have had the funds to engage artists or organizations to provide arts camps. Through School’s Out Art’s In, the Fund for the Arts will make grants to community centers for arts programming that suits their needs and interests.
