Our emphasis has always been on artists and arts in-stitutions, but in this case we are putting the emphasison the kids. Our premise is that arts education, to bemeaningful, must be made an integral part of basic ed-ucation. It must be serious, it must be systematic, andit must be sequential.

ACA's initiative in Arts Education

During 1984 and 1985, the American Council for theArts (ACA) conducted a series of regional hearingsacross the country. The purpose was to determine keyissues for the arts today and to formulate an agendafor a national conference. As a result of these meet-ings, the national steering committee which plannedthe conference identified arts education as a key issuefor discussion.

The conference, "Connections: The Arts In A Chang-ing Society," was held in ,Nashington, D.C. on Sep-tember 22-24, 1985. Francis Hodsoll, chair of theNational Endowment for the Arts (NEA), delivered anaddress in which he announced the NEA's new direc-tion in art education. The conference also included asession, "Arts in Education: Student Audiences,"which dealt with some of the major problems in artseducation from a variety of perspectives. Moderatedby David Rockefeller, Jr., this informative session in-cluded: George Ayers, president, Chicago State Uni-versity; Dale Chihuly, artist-in-residence, Rhode IslandSchool of Design; Leilani Lattin Duke, director, GettyCenter for Education in the Arts; James M. Jeffords,vice chairman, Congressional Arts Caucus; SamuelLipman, publisher, The New Criterion; and SusanMorehead, executive director, Texas Arts Alliance.

ACA's board of directors began to formulate specificplans for a national policy agenda based on recom-mendations made at the conference and at the regionalhearings. As a result, arts education became one offour major issues to be addressed, along with the orig-inating artist, private sector initiatives and interna-tional cultural relations.

As one of its first steps, ACA merged with The Arts,Education, and Americans, inc. (AEA) in January1986. The merger enabled ACA to expand the arts ed-ucation offerings in its publications catalog throughthe addition of a number of excellent AEA publica-tions. AEA had produced the landmark study Coming

vi ACA's Initiative in Arts Education

To Our Senses in 1977, along with a series of mono-graphs which addressed specific arts education topics.More importantly, however, AEA's arts education li-brary was incorporated into ACA's arts mar agementcollection, thereby providing the foundation for one ofthe more comprehensive libraries of arts educationmaterials in the country.

In conjunction with the Music Educators NationalConference, ACA took another major step when lead-ers from thirty national groups representing arts edu-cation, services and advocacy were brought togetherMarch 24, 1986 in Philadelphia. At this meeting thegroup drafted, and later adopted, the "PhiladelphiaResolution" which follows. The resolution puts for-ward some basic precepts that underlie arts education.A second policy document which further elaborates onthe basic principles established in the "PhiladelphiaResolution" is now in the last stages of being adopted.

This unique group of leaders, formally known as theAd Hoc National Arts Education Working Group, nowmeets every three or four months. As this diverse andhistorically differing group continues its commitmentto communicate with one another, arts education inlocal communities across the country can only bestrengthened.

An educated populace is one of society's most valu-able resources, and arts education is a cultural toolwith which to understand, and to participate in, soci-ety. Because the arts are a way by which society en-riches itself, both individually and collectively, theAmerican Council for the Arts has made a firm com-mitment to arts education.

Philadelphia Resolution vii

Arts Education: Needs and Projects

As during the late 1960s and early 1970s, arts educa-tion has again come to the forefront of discussions inthe education community as well as in the arts com-munity. The discussions today however, suggest amore serious and broad-based effort to succeed thanthose ten years ago. At the national and state levels agreat deal of activity exists to improve teaching of thearts in local schools.

A number of powerful resources are in place that canbe used to convince local school boards of the impor-tance of the arts to the total curriculum of a school.Among these:

In 1983, the College Board released AcademicPreparation for College: What Students NeedTo Know and Be Able To Do, the results of itsten-year Education EQuality Project. The reportdetermined that "the basic Academic Subjectsare English, the arts, mathematics. science, so-Lial studies, and foreign language." The Col-lege Board fullovved this up in 1985 with abook on the specifics of what should be taughtin each of the arts disciplines, Academic Prep-aration in the Arts: Teaching for the Transitionfrom High School to College.

United States Secretary of Education William J.Bennett released a report on elementary schooleducation, First Lessons, in September 1986,In a section of the report which addressedteaching the arts, Bennett wrote that, as a partof the explicit curriculum, "the arts are an es-sential element of education, just like reeding,writing, and arithmetic."

Ernest Bayer, president of the Cernegie Foun-dation for the Advancement of Teaching, inhis 1983 study on secondary education, HighSchool, strongly advocates the need for the artsin the secondary school curriculum. He alsopoints out the appalling lack of arts educationin America's secondary schools. In 1934, JohnGood lad published A Place Called School, theresults of his "Study of Schooling." Good lad'swork, like Boyer's, points to the centrality ofthe arts to a student's education and to the cur-rent lack of arts education in the school. BothBoyer and Goodlad have been major advocatesand speakers on the subject and have accom-plished much in getting the education commu-nity to re-think the position of the arts inschools.

The National Endowment for the Arts, underthe leadership of Chairman Francis Hodscil,has made arts education a major initiative inits overall programming and policy develop-ment. Sixteen states have been selected to par-ticipate in the initial phase of the new NEA

Arts in Education program. These states havereceived planning grants to stimulate the de-velopment of sejous curriculum-based arts ed-ucation in local school districts in theparticipating states. The AIE program alsoawards grants for special projects aimed at im-proving arts education. Finally, the NEA ispreparing a study on the state of arts educationin this country to be presented to Congress inDecember 1987.

In addition, the research and resources to help im-prove arts programs at the national level continue toexpand. The following can be included in these:

Teacher associations devoted to arts educationcontinue to prepare and disseminate resourceson teacher preparation and certification stan-dards, suggested curricula, and current re-search and theory in their individualdisciplines. These associations include: theNational Art Education Association, Music Ed-ucators National Conference, the American As-sociation of Theatre for Youth, and theNational Dance Association.

Many national arts service organizations, suchas Young Audiences and Opera America, areexamining ways to serve schools and fit intothe overall arts curriculum better.

Many of the national education associationsare also involved in developing resources ordeveloping programs in arts education. Amongthese are the Association for Supervision andCurriculum Development, the Council for Ba-sic Education, and the American Associationof School Administrators.

Private foundations have funded a number ofprojects to improve arts education Most prom -inert of these is the Getty Centel for Educationin the Arts, which has brought much attentionnationally to improving the teaching of visualarta through their discipline-based approach.

Research in arts education has also proliferatedin recent years. Harvard University ProjectZero's Howard Gardner, one of the leading re-searchers in the field, recently has publishedFrames of Mind, which has wide applicabilityto the teaching of the arts. Project Zero is alsoinvolved with a number of other organizationsin a project in the Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaSchool System. Through this project, calledPropel, some of Gardner's theories are beingimplemented along with ideas in the CollegeBoard study. Betty Edwards, in her book Draw-ing on the Right Side of the Brain, took a giantstep forward in relating the arts to current edu-

Arts Education: Needs and Projects ix

cational theory. Another theorist, Elliot Eisner,has researched the special aspects of the arts inth lir relationship to cognition. California re-searcher Robert Root-Berstein currently is in-volved in work that relates the creative processof the arts with the scientific process. All ofthis research has greatly aided in the processof bringing the arts into the school curriculum.

The current activity in arts education at the state levelis a result of the 1983 report from the U.S. Departmentof Education, A Nation at Risk. This report alarmedthe American public by pointing out serious deficien-cies in its education system and led to a sweeping re-form movement in the state departments of education.This reform movement caused the states to changetheir views on arts education, and a majority of statesmoved to enact changes in teacher certification, gradu-ation requirements, and new curriculum mandates inthe arts. The arts education initiatives undertaken bythe states were reported in a 1985 study by the Coun-cil of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO), Arts Educa-tion and the States: A Survey of State EducationalPolicies, Cerrenily, CCSSO is working to update someof the 1985 data, demonstrating that even more stateshave become involved in the question of educationalreform in the teaching of the arts.

Many state departments of education are working incooperative ventures with their state arts agencies orother organizations to help local districts to improvetheir arts education programs.

Nationally, the Alliance for Arts Education, funded bythe U.S. Department of Education, has been active inimproving local arts education programs through someof its state chapters. The Minnesota Alliance for ArtsEducation, in collaboration with the Minnesota StateArts Board, the Minnesota Department of Educationand the Minnesota legislature, has created an innova-tive project to develop arts curricula at the local level,This program, CAPP (Comprehensive Arts PlanningProgram) seeks to "encourage Improvement in artseducation through cooperative, long-range artsplanning" by assisting school districts with the formu-lation of five-year plans for developing arts curricula.The Illinois Alliance also has been active in helpinglocal communities to implement the Illinois StateBoard of Education mandate that each district have avisual art and music curriculum in place within thenext two years.

Partnerships in arts education are evident throughoutthe country. Many local communities have coflahora-live planning and programming with their school sys-tems and local cultural institutions and artists. Thesetypes of joint efforts, especially at the local level, ap-pear to be the wave of the future for arts education.

All of this arts education momentum at the national

x Arts Education: Needs and Projects

and state level should indicate that the conditions foreducating children in the arts are improving. This im-provement comes after a series of severe cutbacks inarts education during the late 1970s, the result of fis-cal crises in school systems (especially in large urbancenters and rural districts) and of the emphasis on"back to basics" education. Educators finally have re-alized that the "basics" include much more than justreading and math, and educational reform reports in-creasingly have defined the arts as basic to a child'seducation.

Still, the status of arts education in local schools re-mains grim. States such as California and Massachu-setts, through referendum tax reform, have eliminatedarts education in their elementary schools. Even to-day, fiscal crisis threatens the jobs of secondary artsspecialists in California schools. New York City hasmandated visual arts and music curricula in the ele-mentary schools, yet has not mandated specialists toteach these areas. Chicago reports that there are only28 specialists combined in visual art, music and dancewho serve all of the elementary schools in that city.Presenter organizations which provide artists' residen-cies and performing groups to schools report that theyare able to serve only two to five percent of theschools in many states. In many areas these residen-cies (of two to six weeks)--visits to museums or cul-tural events, or in-school presentations by professionalartists--are the only formal arts education that studentsreceive.

Additionally, other problems currently inhibit full in-clusion of the serious study of the arts in local schoolsystems. Many local school systems allow first- andsecond-level foreign language courses and industrialarts courses to fulfill high school graduation require-ments in arts and humanities. Some districts offertheir arts courses after school or as non-credit coursesin which the arts do not figure into the cumulative av-erages of college -hound students. Colleges themselvesdo not give equal weight to arts courses when examin-ing the transcripts of entering students. Certificationstandards for general elementary school teachers,when those standards do exist, do not adequately pre-pare those teachers to provide most of a student's artseducation (as is currently the situation in many dis-tricts across the country).

Advocates for arts education at the local level oftentimes do not exist. The advocates who are there do nothave adequate information to convince superinten-dents of education or school boards of the need forarts education for students that includes cultural liter-acy as a main goal. Even school systems which haveestablished arts education as an important goal lackthe resources needed to design truly effective arts cur-riculum; therefore, principals, arts specialists andclassroom teachers still are a long way from makingthe arts central to a student's school program.

These are some of the many problems facing arts edu-cation today. There are several others, including manyof the special problems that face dance and drama, thedisciplines which have had the most difficult timefinding a place to fit into the school curriculum ontheir own rather than as a part of the physical educa-tion or language arts programs.

This is not to say that the picture is totally bleak.There are many efforts today from both the nationaland state levels that are attempting to address solu-tions to some of the problems mentioned. Some ofthese efforts include:

developing in-service education to re-train ex-isting arts specialists and classroom teachers incurrent theory and practice in arts education;

leading informed advocacy at the local levelwhich can present coherent arguments for artseducation to local school hoards and superin-tendents;

improving dissemination of resources from thenational and state levels to local school dis-tricts to help them plan the improvement ofarts education and the development of arts cur-ricula;

stimulating collaborative ,entures ainong thewide group of individuals and organizationsinvolved locally with arts education, basedupon similar efforts at the national and statelevels.

These are a few of the issues with which the AmericanCouncil for the Arts and other national groups areconcerned. This Guide to Notional and State Arts Ed-ucation Services is a first step in attempting to dissem-inate information widely about what is happening inother areas of arts education. In preparing this guide,surveys were sent to all the state arts agencies, thestate departments of education and the state alliancesfor arts education. Surveys for the national data weresent to education associations, arts service organiza-tions and arts education associations. The universe forthe national organizations was gathered from ACA'sexisting lists of national organizations with a demon-strated interest in arts education. In the end, 191 or-ganizations and agencies responded and are included

in the guide. Regional and local organizations werenot included because of the breadth of this universe,but in the future the guide may be expanded to in-clude them.

ACA will continue to build its information resourcesby gathering curriculum materials, policy documents,research reports, statistical analyses, program descrip-tions and other pertinent materials from national, re-gional, state and local organizations involved in artseducation. This information will be stored in the ACAArts Education Library (formerly the library of theArts, Education and the Americans, Inc.) and will beput onto an in-house data base to assist in answeringtelephone requests and to facilitate greater and more ef-ficient use of the library by those who visit ACA'sNew York office.

ACA's goals in arts education from which new proj-ects are being designed are:

to promote awareness of and advocacy for artseducation;

to stimulate research and policy at the na-tional, state and local level that result in theimprovement of curriculum-based arts educa-tion; and,

to explore and implement methods of provid-ing technical assistance and resource materialsto local communities which are reeking to im-prove education in the arts in their schools.

ACA will continue its efforts to promote arts educationacross the nation and to reach local school districts.Working with other national and state organizations, itwill strive to bring about the connections and to pro-vide adequate resources for those working in the artseducation field in a variety of settings around thecountry. Only with the strong effort of all those in-volved in arts education will local school systems beable to provide solid education in the arts for all stu-dents.

STATE ARTS AGENCIES

Fifty-three state arts agencies (50 states, the District ofColumbia, Puerto Rico and Saipan) responded to the

survey. Table 2 shows the percentage of state artsagencies which offer various information services andpublications and the percentage which serve variousart forms.

The survey also gathered information on total organi-zational budgets and the percentages of budgets de-voted to arts education in an effort to provide somemeasure of an organization's commitment to arts edu-cation. While few of the 52 state departments of edu-cation were able to furnish this information, nearly allof the state arts agencies did so. An average of 14 per-cent of the total state arts agency budget is spent onarts education by the responding groups, with nearlyone-fourth (11) spending 20 percent or more. Table 3lists the ,.?rcentage of total budget allocated to arts ed-ucation for each state.
