Join this virtual Open House session to learn about Grow with GIVE, a new free program, funded by The New York Community Trust, and led by the GIVE Partnership Team: New Victory Theater, ArtsConnection and Community-Word Project.

The Grow with GIVE program is designed to deeply support five NYC-based arts organizations to fully utilize and implement the GIVE Guide* in their classroom settings and organizational practices. These five organizations will receive specialized professional development geared towards arts education in Integrated Co-Teaching (ICT) and other classroom settings serving students with disabilities.

During this open house, attendees will learn details about the Grow with GIVE program that will take place during the 2022-23 academic school year. Moderators will share the program features, give an overview of the GIVE website and resources, walk through the application and review process and answer questions.

PLEASE NOTE: This session will be recorded. We encourage interested parties to register even if you’re unable to attend the live virtual session as the recording and other materials will be sent to all registrants.

About GIVE

GIVE (Growing Inclusivity for Vibrant Engagement) is a free guide that supports Teaching Artists (TAs) in the creation of liberated learning environments and vibrant arts experiences within inclusion settings. 

The goal of GIVE is to provide a wide array of resources that support TAs in:

  • Considering how every student can be engaged and demonstrate their learning
  • Ensuring classrooms are safe and supportive environments for all
  • Effectively planning across students’ social-emotional, cognitive, physical, and behavioral capacities
  • Differentiating arts instruction in lesson design, facilitation, and implementation
  • Incorporating formative assessments that support student engagement and informed lesson design and goal setting for students
  • Building relationships with classroom professionals to co-develop programmatic goals, establish co-teaching partnerships, and reflection structures
