Hello all!!

In 2023, New Victory Education received over 400 survey responses and gathered 43 educators from New York and beyond for a simple, but powerful question: What do you actually need to help bring high-quality, arts-based learning into your classroom? 

Your answer was clear. A one-stop, trustworthy home for practical, engaging resources that can be adapted for any learning space and made accessible for every student. So, we rolled up our sleeves and in 2024 launched a digital space designed around your needs:

1. Smart filters by grade band, art form, school subject and content type (because finding the right resource shouldn't feel like searching for a needle in a haystack.)
2. Handouts with high-quality imagery and clean layouts that look great even in grayscale (we know color printing is a luxury, not a given.)
3. Flexibility with resources accessible on desktop and mobile devices, as well as downloadable PDFs

The response to the Arts Education Resource Library in its first year has been spectacular:

• 32,000+ users visited the library (78% from beyond the New York metro area).
• 1,585 resource downloads brought arts to life around the country and the world.
• 265 resources and counting are now ready to use in your learning space.

This library exists because you generously shared what you needed. Thank you for co-creating something that truly serves the incredible work you do every day.

Warmly,

New Victory Education
