Additional Arts Education Resources
In Washington State law (RCW 28A.150.210), the Arts are defined as a core content area and an essential part of the basic educational goals in all school districts. In Washington schools, the arts are categorized as dance, media arts, music, theatre, and visual arts.
To support the sharing of knowledge about arts education, ArtsEd Washington periodically reviews and posts statewide and national resources. The links below are not maintained by ArtsEd Washington, and clicking them will take you away from ArtsEd Washington’s website.
