The Mi Museo Program in the Education Section of ARTe VallARTa Museo is dedicated to expanding knowledge of the arts within the communities of Puerto Vallarta. The purpose of the museum is to collect, preserve, interpret, and display objects of artistic, cultural significance and to provide arts education for the Vallarta community. Mi Museo is a pilot program of the Education section of the museum to support bringing art into the local standard curriculum of kindergarten children with developmentally centered organized museum activities that are aligned with the standardized curriculum for these grades. This pilot program focuses on the beginning year of schooling to offer a foundation of art-based learning for the children. Exploring the museum through organized activities that connect to the standardized curriculum offers the kindergarten children the ability to develop and engage actively in the process of acquiring knowledge and to express thoughts and creativity. Effective use of the museum through the Mi Museo program can lead to multifaceted learning, development of critical thinking skills and acquisition of lifelong learning skills of the 21st century.
