Overview
Creative Sonoma will partner with Sonoma County Office of Education, Community Foundation Sonoma County, and Arts Education Alliance of Sonoma County to conduct a countywide arts education assessment and strategic planning process. The assessment will include a professionally designed survey of key stakeholders including teachers, administrators, arts organizations, teaching artists, funders, parents and students. Once the survey data has been analyzed, the partners will work together to prioritize the most critical findings, and develop a strategic plan for addressing them with the help of an external consultant. At the end of this two-year comprehensive process, partners throughout the county will have a strategic framework to ensure all students have access to arts education opportunities.
