A new year, a new reason to love school

Posted on August 13, 2025

paul gauguin art lesson

Back-to-school season is here.

And while summer may be ending, the creativity doesn’t have to.

Meet the Masters is the perfect way to kick off the school year with color, confidence, and curiosity.

Because when kids get into art together, magic happens: 

  • They support each other.
  • They learn to express themselves.
  • They discover that mistakes can turn into masterpieces.

And best of all…

Art helps them in every other subject:

  • Reading scores rise when students learn to observe and describe
  • Math concepts make more sense through patterns and symmetry
  • Writing improves when imagination gets activated

Meet the Masters brings that boost straight into your classrooms.

Student Artwork
MTM students use unique supplies to paint like impressionist artist Claude Monet.

Here’s what you’ll love:

  • You own the curriculum, and can use it year after year
  • It’s affordable, flexible, and designed for K–8
  • Step-by-step lessons, slides, and visuals included
  • No art background needed for teachers or volunteers
  • Engaging projects your students will remember—and be proud of

Whether you’re starting from scratch or adding to what you already have, we make it easy to bring world-class art education into your school.

And there’s no better time than right now.

Ignite imaginations. Build classroom connection. Inspire creativity from Day One.

Let’s make this school year the most colorful yet.

Everyone Loves MTM!

I had a parent stop me in the halls and express how much her children loved the curriculum. She was overjoyed that formal art education was included in our school day and that it was a curriculum that challenged the older elementary students, and was able to be done by the younger ones as well. She had a first and fourth grader at the time. I also had an aide who was in the classroom with me while I was teaching tell me how much she loved that art history portion of the curriculum. She said that she wasn’t much of an artist, and as a kid she dreaded craft time, but that the inclusion of the art history would have made all the difference to her as a child. I have students who have complained about going to a good behavior activity (which are always super fun!) because it meant she would have to miss art that week!
