The Iowa Department of Cultural Affairs, through its divisions, is working to promote access to educational resources in arts, culture, history and film that can assist all Iowa educators and families to learn creatively.
Resources include online access to educational resources, virtual programming and accessibility grants.
Days of Learning: The newly-launched Days of Learning program connects educators, students, parents and lifelong learners from around the state with dynamic programming to showcase Iowa's arts, history, humanities and film. These free collections are created in partnership with other cultural and humanities organizations to offer expansive online resources to inspire inquisitive minds of all ages.

New this year! Apply for a Virtual Arts Experience Grant in one of two categories:
Virtual Arts Experience Grants are administered by Iowa Arts Council with funding from the National Endowment for Arts and appropriations from the Iowa Legislature.
Educators who are looking to sharpen their skills and learn more about virtual learning can connect to these professional development and training programs.
Connect to Iowa’s own world-class museums, performing arts and music venues, science and nature centers, and cultural and heritage organizations in your community or across the state to explore their educational programs - virtual and in-person.
