California State PTA and the California Department of Education recognize March as Arts Education Month in California! It’s a wonderful opportunity to celebrate all five domains of artistic expression – dance, media arts, music, theatre and visual arts.

There are three ways you and your PTA can show your support for arts education during Arts Education Month.

First, join CreateCA! Learn more about California’s movement for arts education at www.createca.org.

Even more resources are available on our arts education page at  www.capta.org/arts-education. Remember, creativity is not optional!

Second, we’d love to hear how arts education has touched your child, your family and your PTA. Have an arts story to share? We’d love to connect and hear your story. Fill out the submission form here.

And lastly, be sure to check out your local community theatres, county arts commissions, and museums for more events near you. Visit www.capta.org/arts-education for a list of events and more resources.

Look for additional ideas and activities from California State PTA all month to celebrate Arts Education Month in California, and be sure to share them with your school community!
