This year, National Arts in Education Week is September 9-15, 2018. Designated by Congress in 2010, the celebration recognizes the tranformative power of the arts in education and calls for equitable access to the arts for all students. Dance/NYC is celebrating by sharing NEW YORKERS FOR DANCE video statements on why dance education matters from more than 100 New Yorkers for Dance, including nearly 50 newly released videos. Check out the playlist today!
