This article presents a review of the theoretical and methodological framework surrounding Community Project-Based Learning (CPBL) and its relationship to visual arts appreciation in the Mexican secondary education curriculum. Its objective is to highlight the importance of CPBL in strengthening visual arts appreciation in the Mexican educational context, approached from the perspectives of pedagogy, curriculum, aesthetics, and holistic training. A theoretical and documentary review was conducted on the evolution of arts education in Mexico, highlighting the need to revalue aesthetic thought and the challenges faced by teachers. Likewise, the pedagogical foundations of CPBL within the framework of the New Mexican School (NEM), the philosophical contributions to art, and its impact on the development of transversal skills such as critical thinking and student participation were analyzed. It is concluded that ABPC constitutes a viable active strategy for fostering comprehensive artistic appreciation, which includes perception, interpretation, and critical judgment, based on collaborative work and meaningful learning, the foundation of comprehensive education.
