The Pavilion Supports Local Arts Educators with Professional Development Grant Program

THE WOODLANDS, TEXAS – Arts educators have the power to inspire the minds of our youth and set a foundation for a love of the arts. In an effort to help local teachers grow in their craft, The Pavilion has launched a professional development grant opportunity specifically for arts educators in the community. The Pavilion’s 2023 Arts Educator Professional Development Grant opportunity is currently open for teachers wanting to enhance their arts education.

Grants are currently available to public school educators in the following school districts - Conroe, Klein, Magnolia, Montgomery, Spring, Tomball and Willis - specifically those in the field of vocal and instrumental music, theatre and dance. Funding is available for educators to participate in high-quality, arts-focused professional development like summer workshops, conferences and seminars. Requested funds can be used for registration, travel or conference materials but must be outlined in detail on the grant application. The Pavilion may award partial funding at its discretion in order to support a greater number of applications. Professional Development opportunities must occur prior to February 1, 2024.

To apply for an Arts Professional Development Grant please complete the online application at woodlandscenter.org/grants. The deadline to submit a grant application is April 14, 2023. Applicants will be notified of their grant status via email within a few weeks of the deadline.
