On Location brings the power of digital storytelling to your classroom. Over a four-to-five week period—three of which are spent working directly with our Teaching Artists and the On Location Studio Bus—your students will identify and research a local artist or arts group, decide how to tell the story of their subject, and use digital media to tell that story to the rest of the world!
The documentary produced by your school will be featured on this Web site and in other ARTSEDGE materials. In addition, each selected school will receive an equipment package and $1,000 to support further development of the new digital projects.
