Grants to this Grantee
for the Arts Education partnership
Formerly a project of the Council of Chief State School Officers (a Hewlett Foundation grantee), and currently housed within the Education Commission of the States, the Arts Education Partnership is a national coalition of more than 100 arts, education, business, philanthropic, and government organizations that demonstrate and promote the essential role of the arts in the learning and development of every child. In 2012, the Arts Education Partnership launched ArtsEdSearch, the nation’s first online research clearinghouse focused entirely on high-quality research pertaining to learning in and through the arts. Continued support for this project, as well as efforts to connect ArtsEdSearch’s research with policy implementation through the Education Commission of the States’ research center structure, will provide an essential asset to the field of arts education.
