A proposal to the Effie and Wofford Cain Foundation by the University of North Texas in collaboration with DFW public schools, DFW museums, and regional and state art councils, inviting Effie and Wofford Foundation to participate in the establishment of the North Texas Regional Institute for Educators on the Visual Arts through a three-year grant. The grant will be devoted to leadership training, staff development, and the implementation of a discipline-based visual arts program at the elementary school level.
