capacity building
Arts Connect Houston is committed to creating and supporting spaces for shared learning and collective advancement.
As defined by the United Nations, capacity building is "developing and
strengthening the skills, instincts, abilities, processes and resources
that organizations and communities need to survive, adapt, and thrive."
Arts Connect Houston's capacity building efforts are designed to create and help support a robust community of shared learning opportunities to strengthen all stakeholders within the Houston arts education ecosystem. By highlighting the various expertise and experiences of collective members and other leaders in arts education and supporting fields, we engage in communal opportunities for connection and growth.
