Digital, Web-based Visual Arts Education Program

The Art Docent Program teaches visual arts to children through history and culture, a “Humanities” approach, which is inextricably linked to humankind’s development. Each program is a digital, web-based, visual arts education system to be instructed to students in grades (K-8).

Our mission is to teach children about the history of art where students are introduced to the chronological development of art, which instills and awakens their natural sense of order and aligns with the history of human development. We begin over 100,000 years ago, with our first lesson plan, Art of the Caves. We offer lessons on African Art and Culture, Native American Art and Culture and Hispanic and Latin American Art and Culture. We accomplish this objective, by the use of our extensive digital timeline and multi-modal learning techniques such as animation, oral story telling and vocabulary and a world map.
