About Southeastern Massachusetts Arts Collaborative (SMARTS)
Situated in southeastern Massachusetts, SMARTS – the Southeastern Massachusetts Arts and Humanities Consortium – has been providing arts and humanities programs to over 7,000 area youth since its inception in 2005. With a mission to promote creative skills in students, SMARTS offers a range of visual and performing arts programs that provide both youth and community members with the opportunity to express their creativity.
Not only does SMARTS offer a wide selection of creative writing, dance, drama, film/video, music, and visual arts programs, but the organization also provides professional development for teachers in the two member districts (Attleboro and Mansfield) supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council. This enables teachers to learn new strategies to bring the arts into their classrooms, allowing them to foster creativity in their students.
Programs
The classes, camps and experiences this business offers.
STEAM After-School Club
This club is for children who love to imagine, problem-solve, and design. Join the undercover “Operative Design Agency” (ODA) to work on top-secret design projects that require imagination to solve real-world problems using tools and mixed media. Children will work independently and in teams on unique research challenges that reimagine uses for everyday materials. Projects will explore architecture, design, engineering, and more! Different challenges each year!
Middle School Art Exhibit
The SMARTS Middle School Art Exhibit, established in 1992, brings attention to the quality of artwork created by middle school children from SMARTS school districts (Attleboro & Mansfield, MA). The exhibit also provides an opportunity for middle school visual arts teachers to network and see what their colleagues in other schools are doing with their students.
WINTER INSTITUTE 2023
Children will enjoy 4 days of multi-arts fun!
SMARTS Winter Institute for children grades K-5! Each day is filled with multi-arts theme-based activities. There is nothing more fun than learning and playing in the arts. Master teaching artists encourage and nurture each child’s creativity and imagination as they work independently and in small groups exploring their ideas through self-expression.
