Beginning in 1973 with eight arts education program offerings, the Arts Council now offers over 200 programs in dance, music, poetry, theatre, storytelling and the visual arts. Our programs, workshops and Arts Plus Residencies reach school children in public, private and parochial schools in Morris and eleven neighboring New Jersey counties. Whether you are seeking curriculum-based assemblies, workshops or artist residencies, the Arts Council has programs to suit every school or community venue. All programs in the Program Guide are carefully chosen to insure educational as well as aesthetic value. The Arts Council offers consultation by phone or email to help you with the selection process.Within this site you will find exceptional programs, guaranteed to engage the hearts minds and imaginations of the children you serve.

As you may know, we do not charge either a fee or commission on any of the assembly programs offered in our Program Guide. In fact, the Arts Council of the Morris Area is solely supported by your membership in addition to the generous support of funders and donors. As we strive to keep pace with tough economic challenges, and to continue to provide the quality programming that you associate with the Arts Council, your support is needed more than ever.
