About the AIE Teaching Institute
The California College of the Arts Center for Art and Public Life and Office of Special Programs in collaboration with the Alameda County Office of Education is pleased to offer the Art in Education Teaching Institute:

The Art in Education (AIE) Teaching Institute is California College of the Arts' new year-round professional development program for Bay Area K–12 educators and teaching artists. The institute provides opportunities to build the knowledge and skills needed to teach and integrate the arts in an engaging, meaningful manner.

The institute was developed by the college's Center for Art and Public Life in collaboration with the Alameda County Office of Education to advance our region's capacity to offer high-quality arts learning experiences to all children. Classes offered draw primarily from visual art practice; however, educators and artists from all disciplines are welcome.

In this supportive, experimental workshop, students are introduced to basic art ideas, materials, and techniques. By examining contemporary art practices, participants expand their ideas of what art can be and discover that everyone can engage in art making. Experience the power of art to develop and present ideas, emotions, and understanding.
