Welcome to More Than Math
More Than Math is a professional development program that integrates visual art into the mathematics curriculum for 3rd through 8th grades. Developed in partnership with academic math specialists and local school districts, More Than Math uses artwork from the Asheville Art Museum’s Collection to provide students with skills to enhance their creativity, problem solving, critical thinking, and visual literacy. Major support for this project has been received from the Duke Energy Foundation.
