Art for Every Learner

An Accessible Arts Initiative by the Arts in Medicine Collective

Children with special needs and neurodevelopmental differences often thrive through creative expression. But many classroom art activities aren’t designed with their unique needs in mind. Art for Every Learner is our response to that gap.

This initiative aims to provide engaging, low-prep, and sensory-friendly art lesson plans specifically tailored for special education classrooms. Developed in collaboration with educators and families, these lessons are designed to be inclusive and supportive of:

  • Sensory integration
  • Fine motor development
  • Emotional regulation
  • Self-expression and creativity

  • Ready-to-Use Art Lessons
    Flexible projects to utilize in classrooms with built-in accommodations and modifications.
  • Support for Educators
    Clear guides and strategies for integrating art into existing routines with minimal preparation.
  • Collaborative Development
    We are partnering with special educators to pilot activities, gather feedback, and continuously improve our materials.
