For a number of educators across demographics, securing grants and funding can be mission-critical to setting their classroom up for success. Grants can make a significant difference in accessing the best and most relevant classroom technology. The right classroom tech not only fosters creativity and enhances student-teacher connections, but it can also be the missing ingredient to creating better outcomes for students. There is a caveat, however — and it’s that access to grant and funding opportunities is a constantly-evolving landscape that can sometimes involve intensive research.  

Because we realize that things change so quickly, the Wacom for Education team is excited to introduce a refreshed and comprehensive resource tailored specifically for K-12 and CTE educators: the Media Arts and CTE Funding Guide

The guide is designed to streamline the process of finding and securing funding for educational tools, including Wacom devices, which can transform your teaching experience and positively impact student success. This guide is full of essential information and strategies to help educators navigate the complex world of grants and funding more easily, as well as valuable information on how to access the right classroom tech.

Every artist has their own creative ritual, whether it’s the perfect cup of tea, a morning walk to clear the mind, or that burst of inspiration that hits at just the right moment. 🫖🕯️🎧 Maybe it's lighting the perfect candle to set the mood, or sketching out ideas on an old notebook. Whatever it is, these little essentials set the stage for our best work. For me, it's all about my Wacom tablet. Wacom has teamed up with my club, @wearethedesignkids, to make sure students have the right tools from day one. With the right gear in hand, we can build our own creative rituals and refine our craft. So, what’s a must-have in your creative ritual?

🎨✨ Navigating license agreements as an artist can feel like a maze. Too often, we’re faced with contracts that lean heavily in favor of clients, leaving us with little protection. For artists like Zeynep Alpay, finding a way to make these agreements fair and transparent has been a true game changer. Now she can focus on what she does best, creating art, while the details are handled with Yuify.  🔒 Want to see how artists can truly protect their rights?
