ARTS:LIVE is brought to you by The Song Room
The Song Room is an Australian-based not-for-profit organisation that brightens the futures of disadvantaged children with tailored, high-quality music and arts programs, delivered in partnership with schools, education and community groups.
Creative kids are brighter kids. Research shows that participation in music and the arts at school has a significant impact on education outcomes. Despite this fact, three out of four Australian children are currently missing out on the benefits of a specialist music teacher in their school.
Of course you can use ARTS:LIVE for free, but if you choose to take out a Full Access subscription, your fees go directly towards providing disadvantaged Australian children with the chance to participate in music and arts programs that are proven to improve their education, personal development and community involvement.
Why is creative learning important?
Creativity and innovation have risen to the forefront of 21st century key learning outcomes. Children must develop their creative skills to adequately prepare them for success in school and later in life. Music and the arts are instrumental tools to aid this development, enhancing learning across all subject areas.
Through its innovative learning platform, ARTS:LIVE allows children of all ages, educators and parents to explore, learn and develop their arts and music skills from anywhere in the world, regardless of their existing skills or knowledge.
