arts education at Americans for the arts
Arts Education Research
From disciplines to practitioners to populations served, arts education varies in content and context. Learning in music, dance, theater, and the visual arts are beneficial to all members of American society—young children, youth, adults, and the elderly. Schools and community-based arts organizations are major providers of formalized arts education instruction and programming.
Americans for the Arts provides two public venues for current research and information.

The National Arts Policy Database is a tool that enables users to access and contribute to current information on a multitude of topics related to arts policy. Records in the database are classified into four types: research abstracts, news articles, project profiles, and sample documents. The database is updated weekly and contains more than 8,200 records—providing arts policy researchers, advocates, and administrators with comprehensive information on arts policy and practice.
