We are so excited to announce our 2023-24 Artists-in-Schools season–our ninth!
We know the arts save lives, so we’re thrilled to continue bringing professional teaching artists into Chatham County classrooms! For the past eight years, our Artists-in-Schools Initiative has been growing, and we’re proud to bring our first traditional middle school residency to Chatham Middle this season.
Our goal is to be in every public school in Chatham County every single year. When we get there, we’ll be the first county in all of North Carolina to do it!
