African American Teaching Fellows
We partner with African American Teaching Fellows (AATF) to facilitate workshops for current and alumni fellows, offering resources and support for teachers interested in teaching with art in their classrooms.
The Art SpArcs program is a partnership between The Fralin Museum of Art at the University of Virginia and The Arc Studio at The Arc of the Piedmont, a nonprofit supporting adults with developmental disabilities in Central Virginia. The Art SpArcs program offers an inclusive, accessible, and inspiring space for artists with developmental disabilities to engage with art and each other through meaningful artmaking experiences. The program aims to expose participants to new artists, art forms, and art spaces; help participants develop deeper understandings about the creative process; promote social connections among participants; and provide opportunities to engage with the Fralin/UVA community through art viewing, art creation, and art exhibitions.

We partner with teachers in Albemarle County Public Schools and Charlottesville City Public Schools to provide field trips and professional development opportunities for teachers and their students.
We partner with ReadyKids to promote greater access to art for children and families through our partnership with the ReadySteps early learning play groups.
