Capital Region Arts in Education

We are a “Work of Art” being presented by the Capital Region Center for Arts in Education. Alberto and I presented our program to teachers and school administrators July 1st, which was very well received.

“The Capital Region Center for Arts in Education” (CRCAIE) is a dynamic partnership of educators and artists designed to bring art-centered learning to young people in elementary , middle and high schools. Founded on the Lincoln Center Institute model of Aesthetic Education, 25 years ago, CRCAIE has brought Capital Region schools a comprehensive professional development program that supports teachers in the use of new strategies for making the arts central to teaching and learning. This experiential approach strengthens student and teachers critical thinking, creative problem solving, imaginative and perceptual abilities.

This is a great opportunity for us to reach all age groups in the Capital Region schools and to  teach them about the Neapolitan School of Music of XVIII Century, and a great opportunity to be involved with an established organization.

We hope to be booked into schools during the week of November 17-21.  Their web site is www.centerforaie.org.

We are very pleased and excited about this project.
