We are so excited for this year's show!
Local Artists Helping Student Artists
Our art show and festival features a cross section of high-quality hand-made goods from over 90 juried artists.
Art in the Burbs is an event by The Foundation for Tigard Tualatin Schools. Artists donate 20% of their profits to fund grants that support arts education in all 17 district schools.
Our annual show benefits The Foundation for Tigard Tualatin Schools' (FTTS') Art in the Burbs Grant program. Grants are awarded to each of the district's schools to use only in their Arts programs - music, fine art, and performing art.
We interviewed 10 people about the importance of art in education. All are artists in either music or visual and performing arts, 5 are local public school teachers, 6 are parents and 3 are former students in the Tigard-Tualatin School District.
Here's a short video clip of what we captured. Look for more of the story - Art in the Burbs: The importance of art in education.
