Arts access and
education
USU works in cooperation with numerous arts education programs in the community.

The Beverley Taylor Sorenson Arts Learning Program (BTSALP) provides arts-integrated instruction to elementary students, effectively increasing student performance in every subject —from language arts and social studies to math and science. The program is currently in 300 Utah Schools and is serving approximately 202,800 students.

Each week, more than 300 pianists, ages 6 months–18, of varying abilities and backgrounds, come to the Chase Fine Arts Center for piano lessons and musicianship classes. Their unique program offers 30 - 85 minutes of instruction per week, with affordable tuition rates starting at $35 a month.



Cache Children’s Choir Academy of Singing is supported in part by the Manon Caine Russell Foundation, Utah State Office of Education, the Utah Division of Arts and Museums with the National Endowment for the Arts, the Dell Loy Hansen Charitable Trust, Cache County RAPZ grant, Logan City, and the Caine College of the Arts at Utah State University.
