Art Education |
Art education plays an enormously important role in communities
where the arts are a pervasive part of the economy and
culture. In the Berkshires, many organizations help to
educate citizens, young and old, about the making, appreciating
and living with Art. These organizations help to connect
practicing artists with the community in order to foster
a broader understanding of the role art plays in our society.
