MissionThe Alliance's mission is to advocate for high quality arts education for all students by providing policy expertise and by mobilizing a statewide network of advocates and allied partners.The California Alliance for Arts Education (Alliance) is in its fifth decade of working to build a brighter future for our state by making the arts a core part of every child's quality education. A statewide leader and convener, the Alliance galvanizes California's abundance of arts and culture experts to advocate for quality arts education for all students. By collaborating effectively with the state's leading education and parent engagement agencies, and providing an anchor for policy expertise at the state and local levels, the Alliance is the leader in promoting the arts in schools and enriching the lives of children, families, and communities.MissionDesc

DescThe California Alliance for Arts Education is pleased to present a report on our major program accomplishments and highlights. During fiscal year 2020, the Alliance produced a successful year of programming that reached over 1,000 advocates, we created multiple new advocacy tools and we built partnerships that will help us to reach and activate new audiences. In addition, the Alliance created a Racial Equity Strategic Plan which will guide all aspects of our work and establishes geographic priority areas for our programming. We recognize that within the current public pre-K-12 education system there is inequitable access to the arts. Particularly, African American, Latinx and Indigenous students experience significant barriers to access, participation and success in arts learning that are directly linked to pervasive racial inequities in our educational system. Using enrollment data provided by the California Department of Education, we identified 19 counties with significant populations of African American, Indigenous and Latinx students and will focus our programming on these counties. Arts Now CampaignThe Alliance has made great strides in further developing the Arts Now Campaign. The Campaign supports the development of district and county arts plans through the Arts Now Planning Initiative, provides education about how districts can use arts strategies to improve outcomes for students through the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) and the Title I program, supports community members to advocate for arts education through Arts Now Communities, and promotes student voices in school decision-making and arts education advocacy. On May 27th, the Alliance, in collaboration with Arts for LA, hosted the "COVID-19 & Local Arts Education Advocacy Webinar." The online training provided advocates with the concrete tools necessary to ensure local decision makers harness the full power of arts education in responding to the COVID-19 crisis. The session covered strategies for engaging local school board members, responding to proposed budget cuts, and promising practices for amplifying student voices. We were very pleased with the attendance for this webinar: 304 individuals joined the live Zoom session. A recording of the training, as well as all the resources mentioned, were sent out to all registrants the following day and posted on our website at artsed411.org/toolkit. During the webinar, the Alliance released a new suite of tools to support local arts education advocates. The toolkit includes: " Talking points for public comment period during school board meetings " Tips for preparing and presenting effective public comment" Strategies for engaging youth voice in advocacy" Social media tips for successful advocacy " Template letter to school board members " Sample language for an op-ed in local newspapers and newslettersThe resources in the toolkit are designed for "beginner" advocates who are responding to the possibility of funding shortfalls and budget cuts in their district. We created the resources in response to requests for tools and actions items for new advocates to pick up and use without any training. In order to expand access to new advocates, we translated each of the six resources into Spanish. Arts Now CommunitiesThe Arts Now Communities program is a statewide network of regional, district, and county advocacy groups who receive strategic coaching, training, communications support, and stipends from the Alliance to pursue Arts Now Campaign objectives. Each year, the Alliance hosts an Arts Now Leadership Institute, which gathers members of our Arts Now Communities from across the state to receive professional development, share their success stories and challenges, and help build a stronger statewide network. This year, the Alliance hosted the Arts Now Leadership Institute virtually and invited Arts Now Leaders to include additional members of their teams to join the training. The Arts Now Leadership Institute included the following webinars in FY20:" Sept. 2nd: Welcome to the Arts Now Campaign " Sept. 10th: Coalition Communications and the Virtual Launch Event " Sept. 14th: Arts Providers and Teaching Artists in a New Paradigm" Sept. 16th: Racial Equity and Arts Ed" Sept. 24th: Racial Equity and Action Planning " Sept. 30th: Student Role and Participation in AdvocacyWe have seen how the shift to a virtual platform draws in new audiences as a result of increased accessibility to our programs. Over 350 advocates attended the Leadership Institute sessions. Arts Now Planning InitiativeThe Arts Now Planning Initiative offers an opportunity for California school districts and counties to complete a planning process using the best tools available: the Insider's Guide to Arts Education Planning, high caliber facilitation and strategic coaching assistance. Based on the needs of a district or county, the Alliance guides the planning team through a strategic planning process to create a visionary, sustainable arts education plan to increase the quality, quantity and equity of arts education in schools. During FY20, the Alliance completed Strategic Arts Plans in Nevada County, Mariposa County, Imperial County, Riverside County, Hollister USD and Santa Ana USD. For each plan, the Alliance coach supported the planning team to articulate a vision for the arts, identify strengths and challenges, determine strategic directions, and finally develop a budgeted and calendared implementation plan. On September 30 and October 1, 2020, the Alliance and the California County Superintendents Educational Services Association (CCSESA) Arts Initiative co-hosted an interactive workshop that supported educational leaders facing a new reality that includes distance learning, budget challenges and a dramatic shift in expectations. Presenters introduced highly effective tools from the Insider's Guide to Arts Education Planning to help leaders address trends collaboratively and engage in meaningful dialogue that leads to concrete actions and priorities.Student Voices CampaignThe 2020 Student Voices Campaign had a successful year of student advocacy with videos submitted by 96 students from across California. Due to the pandemic, the in-person award ceremony for the campaign was cancelled but we were still able to provide all winners and finalists with prizes. In FY20, program staff was able to have the Student Voices Campaign featured as a "challenge" activity at the GRID Summit 2020. The GRID was a three-day digital festival celebrating creativity and attended by over 2,000 students. The virtual, live-streamed summit gave students ages 13-18 an opportunity to explore their creative interests and passions. Through workshops, industry spotlights and performances, the GRID provided a pathway to personal transformation and career preparation for young people by expanding their understanding of why creativity is essential for the future job market and particularly relevant to the high-tech and creative economies. We anticipate that the partnership with the GRID will significantly increase the participation in the 2021 Student Voices Campaign. Policy CouncilSince 2010, the Policy Council has successfully grown into its role as a critical center for statewide policy conversations. We have approximately 40 organizations on the Council and we host two meetings per year - rotating between Northern and Southern California - which provide a diverse and engaging forum for leaders from education, business, arts, and parent organizations. On February 6, 2020, the Policy Council met in Sacramento at the California Teachers Association. This meeting, led by Alliance Board Chair Paul Richman, included updates on the Alliance's work with the ACLU, legislative updates from the Alliance's lobbyist and a session during which the members provided input on the Alliance's Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Statement. In addition, there were presentations about early childhood education and the arts, the "Schools and Communities First" ballot measure, the Dance and Theatre Credential workgroup, as well as a panel discussion about incarcerated youth and the arts. Due to COVID-19, on June 4, 2020, the Alliance hosted its first-ever virtual Policy Council meeting. Using the videoconference platform Zoom, the members gathered for a discussion of the Alliance's Racial Equity Statement of Purpose (formerly named a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Statement), to discuss the work of the ACLU, to hear updates on the Alliance's local advocacy strategy and hear from the Alliance's lobbyist Kathy Lynch. In addition, the second half of the meeting was devoted to establishing the 2020-2021 strategic priorities for the Alliance and discussion of the November 2020 ballot.Desc
