How We Work
Programs are available for Pre-K through 12th grade, District 75, and Multilingual Learners and are always customized to students’ appropriate age and/or skill level. All residencies integrate the arts with instruction in academic subjects according to the NYC Blueprint for Teaching and Learning in the Arts. Each residency is led by a professional Teaching Artist who partners with classroom teachers and after-school coordinators to support curriculum objectives and provide artistically enriching experiences to students.
Marquis Studios in-school programs are designed in close collaboration with our school partners, creating a customized experience for each school community. We work closely with participating classroom teachers to identify students’ unique needs and interests and create authentic connections to their curriculum.
