The pARTners Project – a multi-phased collective i

The pARTners Project - a multi-phased collective impact initiative supported by the National Endowment for the Arts - is excited to announce the formation of a Regional Team, which will oversee the direction and scope of the project over its two-year run. The grant was awarded to create a plan to increase access to arts education for students in the West-Central Alabama area, and the Regional Team is made up of individuals with deep connections to the diverse communities in this area. Members of The pARTners Project Regional Team come from a variety of professional sectors and all have an interest in or connection to the arts. Read more #linkinbio⁠

Countless studies have proven the ongoing value of arts education on student achievement; however, many Alabama students still have minimal to no access to this type of learning.

The Greater Birmingham Arts Education Collaborative is an organization dedicated to facilitating access to arts education and providing specialized academic support to schools and teachers while creating paid teaching opportunities for local artists in a variety of disciplines.

Leading the effort is Deanna Sirkot, Executive Director of the Arts Collab, whose own early experiences within the arts and culture sector helped lead her to the invaluable work she champions in our community now.

In a collaborative project between @bhmartsed, @bushhillssteamacademy and @jeffcomemorial, sixth grade students at Bush Hills STEAM Academy have created original artwork and poetry centered around the Green Book. With the help of teaching artist Jahman Hill, students created book covers and poems while focusing on tenets of advocacy, empathy and self-advocacy. In celebration of the students’ work, JCMP and GBAEC will host a live-streaming event on Thursday, April 29 at 6 p.m. Following the event, the students’ work will be available for viewing on the JCMP website.

This project has been made possible by grants from the @alabama_arts, Mike & Gillian Goodrich Foundation, and the @neaarts, a federal agency.
