Connecting Classrooms to Creativity.
We invite schools to connect with us and our GalleRE exhibitions, so students have a chance to see artwork from local artists and engage in related hands-on making.
Generous support from funders and corporate sponsors allows us to offer a limited number of GalleRE stARTer kits at no cost to eligible K-12 teachers in Title 1 Palm Beach County schools for each GalleRE exhibition. These kits, designed to complement the exhibition theme and artwork, include video links, lesson plans, artist interviews, and upcycled supplies (teachers will need to provide some additional tools like scissors and glue).
Each kit is intended for one student but can serve multiple students. We produce only 100-125 kits per exhibition, with a maximum of 30 kits per teacher. Kits are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.
If awarded, Teachers receiving kits must submit at least 5 images per 10 kits of student creations for our online gallery.
Not a Title 1 school and still interested in kits for your classroom? Teachers can still submit an application, and will be put on a waitlist for later in the year to be contacted if there are any remaining kits.
