Elementary Arts Lab is a group of artists, scientists and educators who are passionate about cultivating enthusiasm and curiosity for how we explore and interact with the world around us. We work with K-12 schools to develop and deliver curriculum, integrating movement, art and music with the physical sciences. We aim to educate and inspire children and ourselves while challenging the stereotypes of scientists and artists. 

Elementary Arts Lab offers free workshops for elementary school students and resources for teachers to explore scientific concepts through art, dance and music. We also collaborate longer term with teachers through our teacher-artist-scientist network.

Our aims are:

  • To provoke curiosity, inquisition and wonder

  • To present science as a way to see the world and the arts as a way to explore science in the world around us

  • To introduce students to working dancers, artists, engineerings and scientists

  • Bring more movement and fun into the science classroom

Our sessions are free to schools and local communities. If you would like to work with us or join our team, please get in touch.
