Compromiso activo, Educar y preservar
La Asociación de Arte de Salem es una organización sin ánimo de lucro (501c3) que sirve al valle de Mid-Willamette desde 1919.
EL ARTE NOS UNE EN LA ACCIÓN
Estamos juntos y sabemos que el arte en nuestras vidas es absolutamente fundamental para entendernos, para encontrar un terreno común y para imaginar soluciones creativas juntos. El arte nos reúne y nos une en nuestra humanidad. Refuerza nuestro instinto natural de superar los obstáculos y de cuidarnos unos a otros, de recordar lo que significa ser humano, especialmente en los momentos más difíciles de esta pandemia.
Educación artística comunitaria (CAE)
Programación artística virtual para estudiantes y adultos:
La Educación Artística de la Comunidad de SAA sigue buscando formas alternativas de adaptar nuestros programas escolares que incluyen la educación artística a los estudiantes de K-5 en los condados de Marion, Polk y Yamhill, especialmente a los que asisten a escuelas de Título I. Ofrecer un componente de aprendizaje virtual es otra forma en que la Asociación de Arte de Salem se esfuerza por garantizar que los niños sigan conectados con las artes.
