Please join MASSCreative, Arts|Learning, and Arts at the Boston Public Schools for discussion and action steps on how we can best advocate for quality arts education and youth arts programs for each student in Massachusetts.

We are excited to have the opportunity to bring together the arts education community, including educators, parents, and arts organizations to discuss how to build public support for arts education.

Come ready to share why arts education is important to you and get involved with one of our arts education initiatives:

• Including one year of arts education in high school as a university admissions requirement.
• Injecting the arts into STEM education.
• Measuring creativity and innovation across all subjects.
• Funding arts education in under-resourced schools by tapping into Title I Funds.
