SFCA Artists in the Schools Spotlight: Volcano School of Arts & Sciences PCS
Text and photos: Donkey Mill Art Center (DMAC). DMAC is an SFCA Artistic Teaching Partner and did the Artists in the Schools (AITS) residency at Volcano School of Arts and Sciences Public Charter School on Hawaiʻi Island. AITS is an SFCA program serving Hawaiʻi public and charter schools, supported by public funding from the SFCA and private funding from Hawaiʻi Community Foundation.
“At Volcano School of Arts & Sciences (VSAS) second, third, and fourth graders explored symbolism and metaphor through Hawaiian mythology and sensory participation. Students learned about plant fibers and natural colorants to understand a Hawaiian heritage art form, developing relationships with the life source of their art supplies and broadening their appreciation of place-based historical art forms that are both practical and beautiful.
Fourth-grade teacher Hannah Proffitt shared, “The most worthwhile aspect of the Artist in the School (AITS) residency for the participating classroom teachers was the infusion of creativity into the curriculum. By integrating Hawaiian culture, tradition, language, and art into their lessons, teachers found innovative ways to engage students and enhance learning experiences. This residency provided teachers with valuable resources and techniques to inspire student interest and participation. Moreover, it offered teachers professional development opportunities to explore new teaching methodologies and incorporate diverse perspectives into their classroom practices. Ultimately, the AITS residency empowered teachers to foster a more dynamic and inclusive learning environment, enriching both their own teaching repertoire and their students’ educational journey.”
The residency culminated with a hōʻike of student work at Volcano Art Center’s main gallery space. Teachers, parents, administrators, and community members gathered to hear student stories of what was learned and created. Beautiful mahalo rituals were shared and exchanged along with joyful tears, smiles, and laughter.”
