Art Education at USG
|
Union Street Gallery offers classes and field trips to augment the missing visual arts in the immediate surrounding schools.
Many of the Studio Artists also participated in programs that bring art and artists to the elementary schools for a day of participation and demonstrations.
Numerous higher education facilities use the Gallery to enhance their students understanding of contemporary art & artists by offering field trips and presenting assignments to be completed by visiting the Gallery.
