ArtPop Program
What is the ArtPop Program?
The ArtPop program is an HSA-sponsored program offered by ArtPop (Formerly Tic Toc: To Introduce Culture To Our Children). Throughout the school year, ArtPop rotates forty collections of paintings and artifacts among 17 area schools. Parent volunteers go into the classrooms to discuss the art and create a project with students.
Art Appreciation
As a Willard parent volunteer, you will have the unique opportunity to inspire an appreciation for art in your child's classroom. Drawing from the traveling exhibits from ArtPop, you can share pivotal pieces as a means to open discussion and engage in activities that help students grow in their understanding of an artist, time period, or artistic technique.
Not So Artsy?
Don't worry! We have compiled suggested activities and discussions to help, and the ArtPop program coordinators are always available to discuss a potential classroom visit with you. We promise you'll love it, and your child will love having you in class for what will be a special day together!
How Do I Find a Classroom Project?
1) Willard Art Rotation Schedule
Click the Willard rotation schedule. This list shows which of the collections of paintings and artifacts are displayed at Willard at any given time. Please do not schedule a classroom session with one of the pieces in the school on the day before or after they are rotating, as we need time to pack and unpack them.
2) ArtPop
ArtPop also offers several local art events in Ridgewood each year. Click the ArtPop button and get more information.
