Equity in Arts Education: Data-Driven Insights
Tuesday August 4, 2026 9:00am - 9:45am PDT
Meeting Room # 4
The intersection of CTE and Arts Education looked very different in 2009 when Washington last collected statewide data on arts education access.In 2019, OSPI, ArtsEd Washington, Inspire Washington, ArtsWA, and The Creative Advantage identified the need for a statewide focus on arts education and equity, and informally began building the Arts4All coalition. In 2025, Arts4All distributed a long-overdue “State of the Arts” survey which was completed by nearly 300 Washington State principals. This session will explore trends, strengths, and gaps according to statewide data sets, including the 2025 “State of the Arts” survey. Participants will also have the opportunity to ask questions, discuss potential next steps, and explore arts-focused resources with leaders at the helm of arts education advocacy--ArtsEd Washington, Inspire Washington, and the Washington State Arts Commission (ArtsWA). Together, we will find "Hope, Optimism and Tenacity" in the recent data surrounding CTE and Arts Education!
