Americans for the Arts has partnered with Participant Media (producers of An Inconvenient Truth, Waiting for Superman, and The Help) to launch a campaign called #LoveArtsEd, which will raise visibility about the importance of including the arts in education.

On Monday, November 17, the #LoveArtsEd movement is gaining momentum right here in D.C.! Arts education supporters are gathering for a screening of Freestyle Love Supreme, Pivot TV’s latest show featuring arts education in action, followed by a discussion that explores how a well told story can lead to social action—in this case, improving education through the arts.

A panel discussion will include: 

• Anthony Veneziale, Freestyle Love Supreme 
• Eva Bloomfield, Participant Media
• Maureen Dwyer, Sitar Arts Center
• Ethan Clark, National PTA
• Lissa Rosenthal-Yoffe, DC Collaborative on Arts and Humanities Education
