Made possible by funds from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts, a partner agency of the National Endowment for the Arts.

Arts Ed Now is an impact movement for promoting strong
preK-12 arts education in New Jersey.
NJ Students need the benefits of arts education that build confidence, a sense of belonging, and for expressing empowered voices – especially to reconnect to school and each other right now. As a statewide community of champions, we are committed to increasing participation and the impact of arts education for every student in every school in New Jersey 

Arts Ed Now helps us build skills & practice in getting the word out and advancing programs – while sharing knowledge, experience, and support as peers. The online Action Hub, Action Lab workshops, and other resources bring it all together in one central spot so we can leverage and empower our own advocacy locally.
