New Jersey State Council on the ArtsThe Artists-in-Education (AIE) Program is the cornerstone of the arts education program for the New Jersey State Council on the Arts. The goal is to make the arts a basic part of quality education for all New Jersey students, pre-kindergarten to grade 12 through residencies with professional teaching artists. Residencies are offered in a wide variety of disciplines in partnership with four arts organizations: Arts Horizons, Perkins Center for the Arts, Playwrights Theatre New Jersey and Young Audiences New Jersey. AIE artists are selected for their artistic qualifications and their abilities as educators. For more information, please visit www.njartscouncil.org
Arts Plan NJ
Arts Plan NJ, first adopted in 1998, is the state's overarching blueprint for a better NJ through and for the arts; Arts Plan NJ is a cosponsored project between the NJ State Council on the Arts and ArtPride NJ Foundation. Additionally, three other Planning Partners helped steer the process to review, update and refresh the Plan: Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation, New Jersey Network Foundation, and New Jersey Theatre Alliance.
After a multi-year planning process, the refreshed Plan, created with the input of nearly 1,000 New Jersey leaders, provides a road map for all sectors of New Jersey to connect the arts to their organizations' plans and contribute to the Plan's success. Arts Plan NJ is a plan for everyone, a big picture of what can be accomplished when individuals, educators, nonprofit organizations, businesses and communities everywhere work with the extraordinary arts community of New Jersey. The Plan stresses the value of the arts both intrinsically to the lives of individuals and instrumentally to the advancement of our communities.
