Distance Learning Videos

Welcome to the Art in the Community (AIC) Distance Learning Video Library! In March 2020, Covid-19 shelter-in-place orders suddenly closed all WCCUSD schools. Without access to their classrooms, AIC program Teaching Artists had to quickly adapt to online instruction. These videos below reflect the resourcefulness and flexibility AIC Teaching Artists bought to the challenge of unexpectedly being required to shift to online instruction.

Thank you to the Artists for the creativity and joy you bring to your WCCUSD classrooms. And for allowing us to share these videos with the general public.
