Thereʼs no better time than now to advocate for the arts and the relevancy of art education in our schools.
Here are some reminders to increase advocacy for the arts in our schools, districts, and our larger community. • Know the Stakes - “Who” suffers when art education is cut and/or invalidated in your school? • When Opportunity Knocks, Invite it - Use opportunities and experiences in the classroom to inform and educate others about the higher order merits of constructed and problem-based learning. Share the learning experience with others. • Donʼt Operate on Assumptions - Donʼt assume everyone understands the relevancy and merits of art & design and art education. We all know how important it is to “the core,” as well as creative thinking, problem-solving, creating, and being able to visualize ideas. Spread the word,collaborate, and spotlight. • Put it in the News! - Share stories about what is going on in and outside of the art room. Write a press release and/or publish content so it getʼs out there! • Stay Connected - Visit NAEAʼs advocacy page to learn more! • Share It! - Email your stories, rrs feeds, tweets, and more to Lisa Ulik, advocacy representative:advocacy@wiarted.org
