As we kick off National Arts in Education Week, I'm excited to share a fantastic opportunity for all of us to step up and advocate for the arts. On Tuesday, September 10, at 7 p.m. ET, join us for the webinar "Empowering Teachers to Advocate for Federal and State Arts Education Policy" hosted by EdTA and the Arts Education Alliance.
This isn't just another webinar-it's a chance for us, as arts educators, to learn how to make sure our voices are heard loud and clear at both the federal and state levels. We'll dive into practical actions we can take right now to support arts education funding, push for legislation that protects arts access, and discuss the importance of the National Core Arts Standards.
Advocating for arts education might feel overwhelming at times, but remember, we're all in this together. We all know arts education doesn't just teach creativity; it builds critical thinkers and future leaders. The more we unite, the bigger impact we can make.
Can't wait to see you there!
