Arts Integration for Teachers and Schools
for Educators k-12
The Vision
What if professional development actually inspired you?
I founded VISIE on a simple belief: works of art deepen thinking and meaning. Making art, experimenting, taking creative risks.— these experiences unlock something in all of us. Professional development should do the same. It should inspire, not just inform.
VISIE offers hands-on, art-centered experiences for schools and school boards through in-person workshops, curriculum design, and program evaluation. Arts integration deepens understanding across every subject, for every student. We also offer free live online workshops for individual teachers looking to grow their own practice.

Bring VISIE to Your School
Art has a way of getting teachers thinking differently. Let's do that together, through workshops, curriculum design, or program evaluation. In person in Greater Montréal and Ottawa, or online anywhere. All workshops align with the Quebec Education Program and Ontario curriculum.

The Art of Observation webinar
"Wonderful and thought-provoking. Your presentation was so extremely helpful, and I will be trying a lot of the strategies and activities you taught in my own classroom. I look forward to taking future workshops with you again."
"Thank you for hosting this! As an elementary teacher with no formal art training, I learned so much from the hands-on practice and real-world student examples, which gave me a much clearer sense of what to expect from my own students. I'll be back for another workshop, and I'm already sharing your site with my art education community."
