Welcome to Connecting Kids and Culture

This web site is focused on connecting kids with arts and cultural experiences in the community.

Connecting Kids and Culture is an initiative to enhance student learning by providing greater access to the educational programs of arts and cultural organizations in the community. This web site is a resource connecting over a thousand kindergarten through fifth grade learning objectives, in seven subject areas, from multiple central Iowa school districts, and matching them with arts and cultural experiences available in the greater Des Moines. 

 

The web site is designed to be flexible to use. Pick any way to search the database of programs; by learning objective, grade level, arts or cultural organization, or school district. Find an educational experience that connects with what is being taught in the classroom and enhances student learning.
