Loading Dock Arts Education brings together well-known artists, panelists, teachers, and writers to share their insights with the Greater Lowell artist community and the general public. In the fall of 2016 we successfully launched our series calendar to an enthusiastic audience. Our 2017 events calendar offers educational workshops, events, and
experiences to enlighten the broad community interest at the crossroads of art, art education, design, innovation, and art history. Our educational program is supported in part by a grant from the Massachusetts Cultural Council (http://www.massculturalcouncil.org/), a state agency.
