Welcome to LAArtsEd.org
The online directory is Los Angeles County's first interactive website centralizing access to quality, vetted, K-12 arts education programs that support the Content Standards for California Public Schools, which include the Visual and Performing Arts Standards. Launched in February 2004, LAArtsEd.org enables educators to strategically search for arts education programs by arts discipline, subject area, grade level, program type, and cultural origin. The site contains streaming video, photographs, and an electronic booking form.
For artists and organizations, the online resource directory offers a free marketing opportunity to reach the 94,000 teachers and administrators in Los Angeles County. In fall 2004 the Arts Commission promoted the site to all 80 County school districts via posters, emails and district newsletters.
Application
