Help shape K-12 arts plan at community meetings beginning March 13

Help shape a K-12 visual and performing arts plan for Seattle Public Schools! The school district, the Seattle Office of Arts & Cultural Affairs and community arts organizations are partnering to create an arts plan focused on increasing quality arts education access for all K-12 students. To get input from the community, the city and district are hosting a series of five community meetings in March.

Families, students, teachers, artists, arts administrators and supporters of an equitable and well-rounded education for all are encouraged to attend. Join in the discussion about arts education, creative learning and student success. Provide input and help create the arts plan.

The first meeting is 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., Tuesday, March 13 at Ballard High School, 1418 N.W. 65th St.  For the complete schedule, go here.

Children are welcome. Free supervised arts activities and snacks for school-aged children will be provided at the first four meetings. Space is limited; RSVP is required.
