ART-BYTES COMMUNITY COLLABORATIVE PROGRAM
A partnership project created by the Artist’s Alliance of California to collaborate with Artsnet/Australia, Nevada Union High School & Partnership Academy, Nevada County Arts Council, and Nevada County Juvenile Hall to create a year-long arts and technology program called Art-Bytes. A program for students living in the geographically isolated area of western Nevada County.
The program specifically supports a variety of community based projects broadcast by Art-Bytes Net Radio, an interactive, online radio station offering learning exposure to music, literature, visual arts exhibitions, multimedia, and the performing arts. A noted Art-Bytes project is the ‘Out of the Box’ Touring Youth Art Exhibit which was selected a model program by the California Department of Education for their website teachingart.org.
Funding for Art-Bytes came from the National Endowment for the Arts, the California Department of Education, Hewlett Packard, PG&E, as well as local community organizations and businesses.
