About this organization
Mission
Ape is a 30-year old organization dedicated to promoting students' voices, advancing equity in education, and engaging young people in social justice understanding by collaborating with schools to provide high-quality arts education through partnerships with artists. Cape works with schools that serve low-income students of color in order to build equity and improve access to the arts in communities that lack the resources to do so.
About
Teaching artist collaborations in schools - Cape works with approximately 50 Chicago public schools to foster collaborations among professional teaching artists, classroom teachers and arts teachers who integrate the arts across the curriculum. Collaborations can take place during the school day or after school, and have been ongoing in some schools for as long as 20 years. Cape's approach to arts partnerships enhances learning in the arts as well as in other core academic areas such as reading, math, science and social studies. By combining arts learning with learning in other areas, students have the opportunity to build their academic skills as well as their social and emotional development goals. Extensive documentation of these classroom projects is viewable at www.capechicago.org.
