There are two upcoming opportunities this fall to join arts and arts education stakeholders and supporters in your region to strengthen public and policymaker support for the arts in a community discussion about significant public policy issues and public policy advocacy.
EPLC’s Arts and Education Regional Community Forums are a unique opportunity to help develop a public policy agenda and advocacy plans to strengthen public and policymaker support for the arts and arts education in Pennsylvania.
Co-Sponsored by ArtsErie and the Erie Art Museum
Co-Sponsored by the Allentown Art Museum
For Both Events:
6:00 p.m. – Registration and light refreshments
6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. – Program
If you are unable to make it to Erie or Allentown, additional
Arts and Education Regional Community Forums will be held in the future.
- Receive an update about the findings and recommendations included in the March 2012 report from EPLC, Creating Pennsylvania’s Future Through the Arts and Education.
- Learn about the new Pennsylvania Arts Education Network, a statewide coalition of organizations and individuals working to support arts education in all schools and communities.
- Share your experiences and suggestions for policies and partnerships that will support the arts in schools and communities and the learning opportunities they afford to people of all ages.
- Help to develop recommendations for an arts education policy agenda for Pennsylvania.
- Discuss what you can do to take action to support the arts and arts education in Pennsylvania.
Regional Community Forums are free and open to the public,
