In our opening post this week, we shared that:

artsinedArts in Education Week exists as an opportunity to put a national spotlight on arts education, creating a forum for leaders in arts and education at the local, state, and national level to exchange perspectives, ideas, and solutions to obstacles unique to our field.

That important idea of forum and exchange of ideas is the impetus for the biennial Joint Arts Education Conference as well.

2014 jaec final logoPresented every other year by the Arts Commission and the Arizona Department of Education, the Joint Arts Education Conference brings together Arizona’s arts education leaders to explore key areas and trends in education and the significant role arts educators play in the academic, social and personal success of students.

Learn more about the conference and how it can help you chart a course for success as an arts education leader in your school or community. Visit www.azarts.gov/jaec for more information and to register.

Thank you for joining us in this online forum for Arts in Education Week. We hope to see you at the Joint Arts Education conference on October 20th, where we can continue to share and build on ideas in service of arts education in our state.
