Literacy-Arts Partnerships for Youth
Literacy is more than reading and writing.
At LitiArts, we integrate literacy with the arts to deliver an anti-racist, equitable, and socio-emotional approach to K-8 education. Our unique method not only strengthens literacy skills but also affirms students' identities and promotes their overall well-being.
We collaborate with schools and community organizations to tailor our creative literacy-arts programs to the specific needs and interests of your students through programs, such as:
- Creative Writing Workshops
- Book Clubs & Reading Circles
- Artistic Explorations in Reading
- Literacy & Arts Summer Camps
- Multimedia Storytelling
- Literacy Through Music
Our programs can be adapted to different age groups and educational levels, ensuring that they meet the specific needs and interests of the students you serve.
Join us in advancing educational equity and enriching student experiences through innovative, impactful partnerships.
Our Literacy-Art Workshops focus on
3 core areas
Multiple Literacies
We use a range of literacies and modalities that invite students to engage with literacy beyond word recognition and phonics instruction – digital literacies, visual literacies, music literacies. These modalities increase students’ access to literacy-learning in meaningful and engaging ways.
Creativity &
Self-Expression
We couple our diverse literacy modalities with the arts, such as creative writing, theater, painting, and other art forms. By doing so, students are invited to take risks, foster their creativity, and engage in literacy-learning that allows them to express their identities (e.g., racial, ethnic, linguistic, gender, etc.).
Identity &
Sense of Belonging
Because we broaden what counts as ‘literacy’, we create equitable literacy experiences that all students can access and enjoy.
