What is Amp Up Arts?
Amp Up Arts is a statewide 501(c)3 nonprofit arts education organization with a strong commitment to promoting increased access to arts education and fostering artistic talents in our communities. Amp Up Arts believes in equitable arts access for all Alabama students through art teachers, teaching artists, and arts organization partnerships.
Amp Up Arts focuses on statewide development of arts education for preK-12 schools through networking, advocacy, and professional development, and they support local collaborative sites statewide. They believe in empowering communities to use their local resources and knowledge to create sustainable arts education that is specific to the local culture and needs.
Mobile Arts Council officially gained the title of "Collaborative Site" for Amp Up Arts in January 2023. Amp Up Arts is a collective impact program of the Alabama State Council on the Arts that focuses on the implementation of sustainable arts education for all K-12 public schools throughout the state. With their help, MAC is actively searching for teaching artists in our area and training them through workshops and professional development opportunities to be able to effectively provide arts classes in Mobile County schools. We also provide advocacy on the importance of the arts for our youth and work to spread awareness of the great arts educational opportunities provided by area organizations.
