RESOURCES / ADVOCATING FOR THE ARTS
Because Art Works We are advocating for education policies that ensure every Texas student receives a well-balanced education, quality fine arts instruction, protected instructional time for arts education and opportunities to pursue their passion. ARTreach advocacy goals are in alignment with the Texas Commission for the Arts. ARTreach is creating an advocacy strategy that identifies specific legislation, articulates positions on key issues, and ensures communication to the public, legislators, and educators. Our committees identify top issues for arts advocacy and prepare position papers for delivery or dissemination to help educate our state's decision makers about the importance of protecting fine arts education. We are encouraging citizens to contact their legislators and register support at www.GoARTS.org We involve our local state representatives in our initiatives and include action alerts in our newsletters. We provide the public as well as policy makers with information about the many ways that arts education benefits our students and our state. Contact your state representatives and let them know how much art matters to you, to your children, and to your community.
