Educational Arts Team

Educational Arts Team Transforming Children's Hearts and Minds Through the Arts since 1974. Camp Liberty Bringing Literature to Life, Life Lessons.

Since 1974, the Educational Arts Team, a private nonprofit organization, has developed and conducted countless educational and social workshops for children and families and teachers. The Team's unique approach of responding to community needs and requests from educators, by integrating the arts into the educational curriculum, has led to a high demand for their workshop programs. Through collaboration with the school districts, community-based organizations and foundation and corporate sponsors, the Educational Arts Team offers a menu of in-school and after-school workshop programs for children and families and operates a popular summer arts camp located near Liberty State Park. The Educational Arts Team has recently expanded beyond Jersey City to include school districts in Hudson and Essex counties. The Team provides a range of programs to meet the needs of elementary schools and the community including workshops for students K-12 and professional development workshops for teachers. The programs use age-appropriate drama, writing, storytelling, puppetry, music, dance and visual art activities as strategies for promoting learning, teaching basic academic subject areas, encouraging positive social experiences and promoting positive relationships.
