SKEA serves the public schools in South Kona. Teachers in those schools are invited to make project requests at any time during the school year, although early requests are easier to fund and schedule.

Our artists are able to teach lessons in their art forms, or integrate the arts into something students are studying in the regular classroom curriculum.

SKEA’s role is to match up teachers and artists, provide assistance with curriculum integration, fund the artist’s classroom time, and provide specialized materials not generally available in the classroom.
