Art Resource Collaborative for Kids - ARCK

Mission: ARCK provides arts-integrated education to ignite creativity, build self-awareness, and empower students to realize their full potential.

ARCK envisions an equitable education system where students feel safe, seen, heard, and can build the creative skills that will help them innovate for a better world.

ARCK is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that believes students must feel safe, seen, and heard in order to engage in learning. We design and deliver project-based, arts-integrated programs to under-resourced K-8th grade Boston Public School students. Our Arts With Impact framework plays a vital role in shifting the educational paradigm to prioritize creative thinking, social-emotional well-being, academic growth, and social justice. Since 2012, ARCK has engaged close to 5,000 students across 10 schools providing vital art programs that help students realize their full potential.
