About SVMoA Educator Evenings

Open to educators of all subject areas, Educator Evening is a FREE professional development series occurring monthly. Blaine County educators may receive in-service (continuing education) hours for their participation. SVMoA shares the names of those BCSD educators who participate with the school district office for in-service district hours. Join educators, visiting artists, and Museum staff for in-person presentations, discussion, and activity based on current exhibitions at SVMoA and connections to the National Core Arts Standards and Idaho Content Standards. Develop curricular connections and gain tools, strategies, and thinking routines for integrating art and objects into everyday classroom learning. Participate in a professional learning community of supportive and reflective educational practitioners, and have some fun!

Topics include:
Art integration vs. Art enhancement
