Celebrate National Arts in Education Week!

It’s National Arts in Education Week, September 14-20, 2025Every student deserves the opportunity to create, innovate, and thrive through the arts, regardless of zip code or family income. Yet more than 2 million students still lack access to a quality arts education.

Arts in education drives student success across every measure:

  • Academic Achievement: Higher test scores and graduation rates

  • Workforce Readiness: Building the creativity and collaboration skills that 72% of business leaders say are essential

  • Student Wellness: Providing emotional outlets and supportive communities

  • Equity: Ensuring all students can access transformative learning experiences

That’s why federal policy must protect and expand access to arts in education—starting with protecting the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), the largest national funder of arts education programs in communities across all 50 states.
