Arts Education is a core academic subject and an essential element of a complete and balanced education for all students. Advocate for inclusion and development of all Arts Education disciplines, including dance, music, theatre, media arts, literature, design, and visual arts in order to celebrate the diversity of our students in Arkansas. Even better, participate in the social media conversation to let your voice be heard.

Our network of arts advocates is growing! Arkansans for the Arts hosted two regional meetings to engage leaders from economic, cultural, and educational sectors to discuss the importance of the Arts, Arts Education, and the future creative economy of Arkansas.

Knowing how to talk about the impact of the arts on our communities is one of the strongest tools we have as advocates. While it's easy to talk about the passion that we feel for all things creative, we must challenge ourselves to focus our outreach in a way that can resonate with all potential supporters.
