Arts in Education
Summit in Indianapolis
June 8
The
Indiana Arts Commission is partnering with

Powered Education, a statewide summit on arts
education. The summit is part of Young Audiences
Indiana’s 13th Annual Institute for
Artful Teaching, held in Downtown Indianapolis June

The Arts in Education Statewide Summit is aimed at
continuing the conversation about arts education in
the state of Indiana with teachers, administrators,
artists, organizations, public leaders, parents, and
concerned citizens. Education leaders from around
the country and state will be on hand to discuss
various issues and lead discussions and workshops on
various topics related to issues both inside and
outside of the classroom.
The Summit will be held on June 8. During the
summit, National and statewide leaders will focus on
best practices in Arts in Education in large and
small group presentations. Attendees will also
experience how the arts are energizing education in
schools and organizations throughout the country.
June 9-10 will feature in-depth workshops that
leverage learning by combining art forms with
curriculum topics.
Sessions will be held in Downtown Indianapolis at
the Eiteljorg Museum, Indiana State Museum, and
Herron School of Art & Design, IUPUI.
Featured speakers include Grammy Nominated cellist
and Young Audiences, Inc. artist David Darling, and

known arts educator, and Master Artist with the Wolf
Trap Institute for Early Learning through the Arts.
