In recognition of the second annual celebration of National Arts in Education Week, join Americans for the Arts in a lively discussion about arts education all week (September 12-16) on ARTSblog.
The topic for this blog salon is "Career Development for Students and the Role of Arts Education."
Our contributing authors were asked to interpret the theme broadly, including topics such as careers in the arts, post-high school options, 21st century skills, workforce development, investment in an innovative workforce, etc.
Throughout the week, you'll hear from many staff members from Americans for the Arts, several of our Arts Education Council members, and other key players in our field including: a former assistant superintendent, a corporate arts education funder, the Deputy Executive Director of the National Association of State Boards of Education, and more.
We encourage you to read, share (via Facebook, Twitter, Google+), and comment on the posts throughout the salon!
