Arts Reach Launched in 2010, Arts Reach serves severely at-risk middle and high school students in suspensions in the New York City Department of Education’s Alternate Learning Centers (alcs). Arts Reach engages students through hands-on projects in their own classrooms and exposes them to artists and designers through presentations and museum visits. The program currently serves all alcs in and three in the Bronx, serving a total of almost 1,800 students a year.

Artslife Now in its fifth year, Artslife, mad’s paid summer internship for 11th and 12th graders who attend high schools in New York City, offers students the opportunity to gain practical work experience in an art museum setting. The curriculum focuses on three related elements: museum studies, the design process and developing leadership skills. Ten students participate every year for seven weeks. They attend weekly design workshops, visit professional design studios, lead exhibition tours for other youth and create educational and interpretive resources for the Museum. The program also aims to give the Artslife interns important perspective on the working world by involving them in a variety of museum operations. from top National Dance Portfolio Prep Institute performance The Portfolio Prep program for middle at Family Day school students includes a series of workshops Children at a workshop in designed for students planning to apply to the Museum classroom nyc specialized visual arts high schools.

Dear Friends,

Right now, in our galleries and all and to working together as mad studios, you can see this broad-minded embarks on its next chapter. approach in action. Out of Hand: Materializing Glenn Adamson I began my career with this institution, the Postdigital is an exhibition exploring the nanette l. laitman back when it was called the American latest innovations in digital fabrication, and director, Craft Museum, as a volunteer intern just shows how artists and designers are applying museum of arts after I graduated from college. My experience these techniques to achieve new levels of and design confirmed my dedication to the field of craft creativity.

I have a simple, if personal, answer: I am deeply committed to championing skilled makers and everything they bring to the world around us. That is mad’s core mission, and has been ever since it was founded by the Glenn Adamson visionary philanthropist in 1956. The Museum’s first exhibition was entitled Craftsmanship in a Changing World. That is still a perfect slogan for us. The aesthetic and ethical values of skilled making—the sense of responsibility that craft engenders—are more important in the 21st century than ever before. My predecessor, Holly Hotchner, built mad into the extraordinary platform that it is today. She dramatically expanded the institution’s capacity, programming and reach. It is an extraordinary legacy. I look forward to building upon her accomplishments, through close collaboration with our staff and board and as well as all of our dedicated supporters.
