New Arts Education Partnership Report: Highlights Strategies for Arts Integration & Urban School Reform


This new Arts Education Partnership (AEP) publication, The Art of Collaboration: Promising Practices for Integrating the Arts and School Reform, is the second installment in AEP’s research and policy brief series that outlines promising practices for building community partnerships that integrate the arts into urban education systems. The publication describes 16 practices used by the demonstration sites in their efforts to improve student achievement, build public support for arts education, and influence local policy.

The publication, which is the result of a roundtable conversation among the directors of eight of the demonstration sites participating in The Ford Foundation's Integrating the Arts and Education Reform Initiative, details the sites' early strategies and successes in the areas of organizational infrastructure; partnership development; integrated arts education; and communications and advocacy. This publication is also intended for anyone engaged or interested in using community-based arts education collaboration as an agent for system change. For more information about AEP's publication, click on the URL link below.

To download a free PDF version of the report, go to Arts Education Partnership: The Art of Collaboration: Promising Practices for Integrating the Arts and School Reform.
