Step Into Art, Inc. is a non-profit organization founded with the mission of providing dynamic, content-rich art education programs that actively engage children with great works of art from Boston-area museums. Each Step Into Art program takes place in partnership with a Boston school. Combining art-viewing, art-making, and imaginative writing, our multidimensional programs offer students diverse entry points for learning and expression.
The founder and president of Step Into Art, Inc., Abby Rischin, is a Yale Ph.D. and an award-winning teacher. Abby brings her enthusiasm and expertise to the design and teaching of Step Into Art programs, working with a talented team of educators to introduce students to the extraordinary collections of major Boston cultural institutions: the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum; and the Sackler Museum at Harvard University.
