Studio in a School fosters the creative and intellectual development of New York City youth through quality visual arts programs, directed by arts professionals. The organization also collaborates with and develops the ability of those who provide or support arts programming and creative development for youth both in and outside of schools.

Studio in a School serves young people by integrating the visual arts into teaching and learning, and provides professional development for artists and teachers.
In 1977, during a financial crisis in New York City, public school arts education budgets were dramatically cut. In response, Agnes Gund, philanthropist and President Emerita of The Museum of Modern Art, founded Studio in a School.

Studio in the School is taught by Mr. Tunney in the Art Room for grades 1-5 at PS173. Teachers attend all studio sessions, providing them with an excellent opportunity to not only grow as an artist themselves, but also interact with his/her class in a new and creative setting.
