AIA Residencies are...

  • Creative

    Students and educators think critically and creatively using a variety of art forms to engage with academic material in unique, unexpected and impactful ways.

  • Student Focused

    Student needs at the core of the residency and adaptations are made throughout in order to reach learners of all abilities. In addition, students are equal partners in the learning experience and their interests and voices guide creative exploration.

  • Inclusive

    Classrooms must include students with and without disabilities, where they are equal learners and peers support academic and social advancement.

  • Rooted in Authentic Learning

    Students will increase arts, academic, and social-emotional knowledge and skills.

  • Enhanced by Collaborative Teaching

    Classroom educators will gain confidence meeting the diverse needs of students  and utilizing arts integration strategies.

  • Academic Content Standards-based

    All residency plans use Universal Design for Learning strategies to address Ohio and/or national academic content standards.

  • Flexible

    Every school and classroom has different needs. Schools and artists schedule the residency when it works for them.

  • Sustainable

    Generous support from funders like the Ohio Department of Education allow Art Possible Ohio to provide Adaptation, Integration, and the Arts free of charge.
