Distance Learning

The Distance Learning program’s mission is to make arts education accessible to populations for whom access to the arts is limited. It allows students to interact live with teachers, artists and the Center’s exhibitions without leaving their classrooms, using multiple ISDN lines.

Working with the Broward Education Communication Network (BECON), the Art and Culture Center creates arts related curriculum and presentations to broadcast into Broward County Public Schools. These presentations are interactive, and several classes can participate in each session.
