In year's past, the Guild has been instrumental in establishing the need for art instruction in area schools through it's art-in-Schools Program, professional artists were employed to provide for those schools which did not have art teachers. With the cooperation of Channel 2 TV, professional videotapes were produced in connection with the art residency programs. The program provided the impetus for hiring an art teacher in Blount County Schools. The remainder of the community contributions to the Guild's program, $1,000 was donated to this education effort.
