Field Trips

Douglas County classrooms are invited to UVA for an afternoon of art activities. A traditional field trip includes different art experiences, a tour that tells the history of UVA’s building, and a walk through current exhibits in the galleries.

Artists in Residence

UVA connects Douglas County schools with professional teaching artists and helps coordinate residencies that meet each school’s needs. Residencies can be designed to focus on a curricular theme, a certain medium, or on specific art skills. Typical residencies are one to two weeks (20 hours per week).

Art Express

Bring the arts into your classroom: grounded in art history and focused on exploring the social meanings of art, these lessons are fun and engaging! The one-hour lessons are led by trained Art Express volunteers.
