Mission

Engaging Creative Minds (ECM) mission is to spark creativity and curiosity in all learners through innovative learning experiences.

About

In-school engaged learning experiences (ELES). Engaging Creative Minds provides training and opportunities for artists and cultural organizations to collaborate and integrate the arts into the existing curriculum during the school day. Teachers in kindergarten through 8th grade receive two experiences per year. The goal is to close the opportunity gap for all students which ultimately closes the achievement gap. ELES engage and motivate students thus seeing improved behavior, increased attendance in school and more engaged students. Teachers become more skilled and confident at using the arts as both a tool and an appreciation for the arts.
