Creative Aging for Lifelong Learning (CALL) – Organizations is a West Virginia Department of Arts Culture and History grant program supporting projects that teach a new skill in the arts to a group of adults. Listed among the department’s West Virginia Arts Grants, it provides support for schools, local governments, and 501(c)(3) organizations offering adult arts learning.
The program’s focus is teaching and learning in a group setting. Its central purpose is to help adult participants acquire an artistic skill through a project, rather than simply present the arts to an audience. This connects CALL’s creative aging and lifelong learning goals to projects centered on new arts instruction for adult participants.
