2. creativity through research-based, arts driven education.
CAPE works toward a future in which young people are empowered,
through education and the arts, to fully realize their academic, creative
and personal potential.
OUR MISSION
OUR VISION
OUR WORK IN SCHOOLS
CAPE inspires students to be passionate about their education by weaving
visual and performing arts into their classroom lessons. To bring their
academic subjects to life through art, we partner professional teaching
artists with Chicago Public School teachers to develop original, creative
lesson plans. These lessons integrate music, dance, drama, digital art, video
and photography into classrooms; and, they also expand learning beyond
school walls into community sites like art studios, performance halls and
exhibit spaces.
CAPE's unique approach to enhancing education with the arts better
engages students, improves their understanding of content, and boosts
their grades. CAPE even commissions long-term research to show that
thinking, self-esteem, and confidence.
OUR IMPACT ACROSS CHICAGO
Our teachers and teaching artists spent 15,217 HOURS thinking,
planning, teaching, reflecting, and sharing together
4300 STUDENTS learned math, science, language arts, and history by
dancing, painting, singing, sculpting, and shooting photo and video.
143 TEACHERS developed new skills and ideas for their classrooms
62 TEACHING ARTISTS shared new perspectives and tools
48 SCHOOLS were energized and supported by CAPE partnerships
