Free art books and educational tools from Art Resources Transfer

  • 1.  Free art books and educational tools from Art Resources Transfer

    Posted Jul 27, 2022 08:46 AM
    Art Resources Transfer's Library Program provides free books on art and culture to public libraries, schools, and incarcerated readers nationwide.
    We are thrilled to share that we have released a new teaching guide in our Reading Resources series, which supports educators to use art books in learning activities. 
    Focused on the artist Walid Raad, the guide invites learners to explore the relationship between truth, fiction, and history through a series of adaptable exercises. You can access/download it on our website here.
    We also warmly welcome all public institutions to order free art books. Our book catalog offers 300+ titles published by leading museums, galleries, and independent presses nationwide. Institutions that serve incarcerated readers can order up to 10 copies per book and distribute these books directly to the readers you serve. Books are free and shipped free of charge. To get started, simply sign up through our website here
    We warmly welcome any questions and suggestions – please get in touch here.
    Sincerely,
    Art Resources Transfer
