The ARTeacher Fellowship kicked off the 2025-26 cycle with professional development on using theater strategies to improve student interpersonal skills and strong behavior. The teachers then learned to use the stage medium of tableau to engage students in curriculum using embodied meaning-making. The workshop was led by teaching artist Kassie Misiewicz of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and Focus5.
The ARTeacher Fellowship is a flagship arts integration program of the University of Arkansas Center for Children & Youth in collaboration with the Walton Arts Center and Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art.
