Protecting The Arts, Protecting Our Kids
A Moment Of Urgency.
The world around our students is shifting in ways that challenge their sense of security, identity, and self-expression. As educators, artists, and advocates, we are in protect mode—ensuring that our children have spaces where they can move, create, and be fully seen.
We believe the arts are more than enrichment; they are a fundamental human right. Now is the time to take stock of what we currently offer kids and explore how we can harness the resources within our community to amplify the arts as a tool for healing, empowerment, and resistance.
Why Now?
At a time when funding cuts, political battles, and systemic inequities threaten creative spaces, we must ask ourselves: What can we do right now to ensure every child has access to the transformative power of dance, music, theater, and visual arts?
