WHO WE ARE and What We Do:
Anti-Racist Art Teachers is a collective of educators across the United States who promote inclusive thinking, celebrate diversity, and inspire transformative action through art education. We seek to provide educators and caregivers with resources to explore anti-bias and anti-racist concepts through art-making that engages youth in critical conversations about voice, power, bias, race, equity, diversity, inclusion, and justice. Currently, our website provides resources related to anti-bias and anti-racist issues, curriculum ideas, lesson plans, artists, and more. We also hold monthly virtual book clubs, affinity spaces, and community conversations to share knowledge and collaborate with educators worldwide.
Art provides us the space to conceptualize an equitable future, transform and heal communities, illuminate injustices, educate others, and inspire action. Together, we can imagine and create a better world!
