School Programs

In partnership with Red Hook elementary, middle and high schools, Pioneer Works develops engaging in-school and after school experiences for K-12 students that encourage learning through arts, music, sciences and technology. School programs often feature themes, topics and materials that are explored throughout Pioneer Works Exhibitions. Workshops are often led by current or former Artists in Residence, as well as skilled multidisciplinary educators.

Generous funding for school programs is provided by Nissan.
