Arts in Education Week – Day 6

The celebration continues 

What’s happening this week? If you missed the four three blog posts and wondering about the history of Arts in Education Week: Starting in 2010 Arts in Education Week was designated by Congress with the House Resolution 275. The resolution names the week beginning with the second Sunday in September as National Arts in Education Week.
