Funding Arts Learning – Building Sustainable Partnerships & Finding Support
Friday March 28, 2025 12:45pm - 2:00pm PDT
One of the biggest challenges to implementing arts-learning programs is securing sustainable funding. This session will provide school leaders with strategies for identifying funding sources and building partnerships that support arts integration. While not all grant funders support school-based initiatives, we will explore alternative approaches, including community partnerships, PTA/PTO-driven initiatives, and leveraging existing public funds. Additionally, we will highlight arts education resources offered by other organizations that can help schools navigate funding opportunities.

Objectives & Outcomes:
Identify key funding sources and partnership models for arts learning programs.
Understand best practices for writing successful grant proposals.
Explore alternative funding strategies, including district budget allocations and PTA/PTO support.

Interactive Elements:
Walkthrough of successful funding strategies, including case studies of school-arts partnerships.
Attendees will draft a funding pitch that emphasizes partnerships and sustainability.
