The BYU ARTS Partnership motto is “Every Child, Every Art”, and this year’s theme is “Circles All Around Us.” We will be privileged to have Brad Montague, author and illustrator of the book Circles All Around Us, join us as a keynote speaker.

Recent years in teaching have been heralded as the hardest ones yet. To ease the burden on teachers, our goals for Arts Express are designed for educators to

1. Experience deep learning through experimentation, hands-on work, and embodied learning pedagogies;
2. Inspire joy by participating in workshops and keynotes that nourish them mentally, emotionally, physically, and socially; and 
3. Increase the social capital they need to be successful in their work by engaging in our community.
