Celebrate Excellence for Arts in Education Week 2022

Arts North Carolina is a proud member of the NC Arts Education Leadership Coalition (AELC), consisting of organizations who collaborate with and represent arts educators and advance comprehensive arts education in our state. Each year we honor those individuals and institutions who excel in their work and deserve recognition as part of our NC Arts in Education Week celebration. We would like to help recognize and thank these organizations, individuals, and all those who instruct, engage, and inspire our students through the arts.
