Foundation

ArtWorks is a program of the Partners in Education Foundation for the Santa Fe Public Schools. Partners is an independent non-profit organization that links the community (citizens, businesses, nonprofits and government agencies) with its public schools in productive partnerships. 

 

Partners in Education serves Santa Fe’s publicly funded primary and secondary schools: the New Mexico School for the Deaf, the Santa Fe Indian School and the Santa Fe Public Schools.

 

Partners in Education works to effect positive change in the schools by working directly with teachers. Partners in Education continuously seeks to improve education in Santa Fe by providing ways to achieve creative, cost-effective and innovative solutions to educational problems.
