Lake Oswego’s ArtLiteracy Program is a volunteer based program that acquaints over 5000 Lake Oswego students with art from around the world each year. The Art Literacy curriculum follows the Discipline Based Art Education (DBAE) approach, which is an ongoing course of study that allows children to continually grow in their ability to make and understand art. Art Literacy presentations are tailored to the developmental level of the students. Whether our volunteers present the art of Renoir, the Aboriginals, or the Renaissance, they shape the material to match the students’ abilities. In addition, our hands-on approach allows children to learn by doing.
