Washington State Arts Commission (ArtsWA) has a mission that includes fostering arts education throughout the state. These two videos answer many questions that educators have, such as – what is a teaching artist, what is arts integration and how do these elements benefit and support a traditional curriculum.

Both animations include a version with audio descriptions (an accessibility for those who are vision impared or blind). The videos were created in partnership with Jack Straw Cultural Center and thier deaf youth audio program.
