ArtsEd West is a regional hub that connects educators, artists, and communities across the western United States through innovative programming, professional learning, and advocacy. By building networks of collaboration and advancing equitable and community-centered practices, ArtsEd West strengthens the systems that ensure every student has access to the transformative power of the arts—in school, in career, and in life. We envision a collaborative community where youth, educators, and artists are empowered to shape public policy and cultivate artistic literacy, where the unique perspectives of the western region are advanced and valued. Mission: ArtsEd West exists to secure a well-rounded and artful education for all students.
