Delaware Institute for the Arts in Education (DiAE)

At DiAE, our mission is to enhance the quality of education in Delaware by delivering arts-integrated, multicultural experiences to students and teachers of all ages …inspiring the artist within.

$9,950 raised from 91 donors

$10,000 goal

Since 1982, DiAE has served students and teachers in all three counties with arts-based and arts-integrated programs that are tailored to the curriculum and that take place during the school day so they reach the widest cross-section of students.

Your donations provide critical support for our three programs:
  • K-12 Artist in Residency Program 
  • Delaware Wolf Trap Early Learning Through the Arts
  • Teacher Professional Development

Thanks to our community of supporters, more than 3,000 students and 200 teachers engaged with a DiAE teaching artist last school year, and demand for our programs continues to grow

Research in the field of arts education demonstrates benefits on school culture, student motivation, attitudes, and attendance.

Thank YOU for supporting Delaware teachers, students, and artists.
