For educators, organizations and individuals working to inspire a love for learning and connect young people to the natural world through the arts.

Mission

Our mission is to inspire a love for learning and connect young hearts and minds to the natural world through the arts.

Vision

Our vision is to provide materials and learning environments, both in person and online, that promote high-quality standards of inquiry, exploration, experimentation and inspired pursuits. The Wild Arts Learning curriculum is materials-focused and nurtures students toward a sense of place in learning the natural materials around them. This leads to an understanding of responsibility and purpose in stewarding environments.
