Artsonia

Artsonia is the full package! It allows your students to build their own portfolios. It helps them learn at a young age the importance of displaying and sharing artwork by encouraging them to title and submit artist statements. I love that I can give them prompts for the artists statements. It connects classrooms to homes by emailing parents the moment students submit. Artsonia connects teachers with lesson sharing. It really is the whole package!

Artsonia is the most incredible connection an art teacher can have with her students and guardians. Artsonia is easy to use and keeps the artwork archived in such a fun manageable way. I love that my students can see their work from all their years with me, it’s irreplaceable in my room and will always be used for as long as I’m an educator.

I have used Artsonia for 19 years to showcase student work and to raise funds through purchases that parents make from the gift shop. The site becomes a digital portfolio for students that shows their development through the years and is easily transferred when they move to a new school. The gift shop items are great quality; only once in 19 years has a parent complained about a problem, and Artsonia took care of it immediately. I highly recommend the site to art teachers at all levels.
