The 2011 Annual Report website is chock full of classroom stories, touching profiles, and highlights from the year. There's even a handy infographic that pretty much sums up why art matters. Take me to the website!
- "My husband and I believe strongly that arts education is essential for building innovative thinkers who will be our nation's leaders of tomorrow."
- First Lady Michelle Obama
- “The arts can help students become tenacious, team-oriented problem solvers who are confident and able to think creatively.”
- Secretary of Education Arne Duncan
- “Artistic expression is not just the province of artists; it appears spontaneously, irrepressibly, throughout each of our lives, mostly in forms and venues not identified with Art with a capital A.”
– Actor, Teaching Artist & Author Eric Booth
