Residency in Houston

There is an art residency program in Houston called  ArtBound! is a curriculum-based, in school integrative arts program at H.I.S.D. For each visit, the teaching artist works with each class for approximately one hour. Art League Houston Teaching Artists are professional artists and experienced teaching artists. The residencies, including art supplies, are offered free of charge to the participating schools. In addition, the ArtBound! residencies integrate into H.I.S.D. curriculum and is provided primarily to grade levels third through fifth.

I think this is a great program where 'artists' can start young with other local kids and teachers. Here is a link: http://www.artleaguehouston.org/artbound/
