The
mission of the Philadelphia Arts in Education Partnership
(PAEP) is to promote learning in and through the arts
for students in K-12 schools throughout southeastern
Pennsylvania. We accomplish this mission by working
with teachers, teaching artists, school districts,
colleges and universities, and 82 arts and cultural
organizations throughout the region to encourage excellence
in arts-in-education practice, and to bring arts-based
learning experiences to students who otherwise would
have limited access to these opportunities. Through
a range of programs and services, PAEP achieves its
primary goal of advancing student learning by promoting
best practices in the design and implementation of
arts-in-education programming, building capacity in
those who deliver arts in education programs, and providing
access to resources and networks in support of arts
in education programming.

The Philadelphia Arts in Education Partnership was founded in September
1996, with initial involvement of 30 non-profit arts and cultural
organizations and institutions. The intent of this initiative
was to assist in the partnership efforts of the Pennsylvania
Council on the Arts by extending its outreach to the state's
most populous community with a wealth of outstanding artists,
artistic resources, and educational institutions.
The Partnership has grown to be an independent organization that
comprises over 80 of the region's leading visual and performing
arts institutions, colleges and universities, the School District
of Philadelphia, and the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. PAEP is a
501(c)(3) non-profit organization, incorporated in Pennsylvania.
PAEP resides at The University of the Arts. |
