Artsconnect: Arts Council Silicon Valley June 1, 2010

The de Saisset Museum, in partnership with ArtsConnect, serves as the venue for this exhibition program on an annual basis. This year represents the ninth year of this important collaboration. Created in 1989 by Arts Council Silicon Valley, ArtsConnect promotes the idea that art is an effective tool for students to access not only their creative functions but also enhance intellectual, social and emotional development. It has grown over the last decade to reach more than 1,500 young adults annually at 25 facilities throughout the region.
