Read all the research, news, and policy in our arts education RECAP for August 2024.

Research

Our main work is about dialogue, which is not always comfortable, “I really believe in play. Play is when certain guards are taken down, and you are able to talk with something without judgment. It enables information to flow during and as a result of a relationship with materiality or with a medium.” UCLA Newsroom

Equity

LA County gives $6.4 million to hundreds of nonprofits and arts groups, “Organization Grant Program grants are intended to strengthen the L.A. region’s cultural ecosystem with funding to groups of every artistic discipline, budget size and geography.” Los Angeles Daily News

Call-to-Action

Immersing Students in Sustainable Art Education, Strive for real, sustainable change with community partnerships.  It’s no secret that community building is key in widespread change.” Columbia University

Advocacy

English learners, too, would benefit from fixing how we teach reading in California; this bill is a good start, “It is difficult to pack all this into a piece of legislation clearly and precisely. But try we must if we’re serious about improving reading achievement rather than winning the latest reading wars skirmish.” EdSource

Policy

Local arts education watchdogs warn districts to be careful using Prop. 28 funds,“Without clear answers or directions from the state yet, Yarrow is urging district staff and parents to reach out to their district leaders and ask questions.” The Press Democrat
