During this symposium, participants will actively explore key processes that support the fascinating and complex work of arts-in-education partnerships.  Guided by a team of select ESP faculty, we will combine current educational theory with your specific ESP practice, using methods that are learner-centered and highly engaging. 

Special Info!

  • It’s free of charge for teachers, teaching artists, or administrators from ESP School-Wide Arts partnerships.
  • Each ESP partnership may designate one teaching artist to receive an
    $80 attendance stipend.
  • A special Lunch is provided for all participants. 
  • Partnerships are strongly encouraged to enroll a team consisting of teachers, teaching artists, and administrators, since planning time is incorporated into the symposium schedule.
  • Special Transportation Options, include:  Free Parking, Bus from Manhattan, and Shuttle service to/from the Willets Point Subway Station.

A 2007 participant said, “The Spring symposium was great!
I wish I’d brought more people from my partnership.”
