Art Literacy
ART LITERACY PROGRAM INFORMATION
The St. Matthew Art Literacy program promotes visual literacy through the studies of art history and art appreciation. The lessons introduce artists, cultures, time periods, techniques, and art mediums for the personal and unique creation of art. Students experience and experiment with a variety of art approaches. Art is an avenue of expression that can be used across the curriculum and supports the varied ways children learn. Research has shown that art is critical in the lives of students. It allows them a different avenue of communication and opens them up to new ideas and new ways of understanding the world and themselves.
The Art Literacy Program is a volunteer based program. The art volunteers can be parents, but also anyone able to devote the time to the art program. This will include being informed and willing to share their enthusiasm for the program and the process. All volunteers must be approved by the office and have completed the Archdiocesan volunteer requirements. School parents can use Art Literacy toward their annual Share Hour requirement.

Thank you to our amazing families that took the time today to pick up learning materials for their children. We appreciate your patience. We had almost 150 families to get materials to in just under seven hours and were able to complete the task with only a couple families not being able to make it. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Several members of the St. Matthew staff worked tirelessly yesterday to prepared materials for our students. Families are picking up these materials today so we can continue our Distance Learning journey. Thank you to everyone who worked so hard and put so much love and effort into getting this done!
