City of El Paso (El Paso Museum of Art)

The El Paso Museum of Art will expand its museum school and library programming to preschoolers, ages 3-5, and their parents, with emphasis on grade-level reading, bilingual literacy, and literacy through the visual arts, storytelling, and interactive activities. The program will host parents and children in weekly discussions and activities based on works of art in the permanent and temporary exhibition galleries, picture books, and other original works. The project results will provide an inclusive and responsive educational resource that can be shared and replicated to meet the growing national needs for arts and bilingual literacy programs.
