The Fall 2022 edition of InsideART focuses on works in the USF Public Art program. Through a collection of teaching resources, learning activities, and biographical information about the artists, teachers and students are invited to examine how art can explore culture, history, and critical social issues. Lessons are aligned with curricular and instructional standards of state and national learned bodies in social studies and art education. 

InsideART lessons are written by USF College of Education faculty Dr. Bárbara C. Cruz, Professor of Social Science Education and Dr. Cheryl Ellerbrock, Associate Professor of Middle Grades and General Secondary Education; and Ashlee Highfill, M.Ed.. The program is co-directed by Dr. Cruz and Leslie Elsasser, Curator of Education, USFCAM, with support from Amy Allison, USFCAM.
