As public schools across the nation discontinue art, music, theatre, and dance programs due to budgetary constrictions, a glimmer of hope is emerging in the field of community-based arts education thanks to The National Guild of Community Schools of the Arts.
The National Guild is a not-for-profit organization that provides service, advocacy and leadership to over 330 community-based, non-profit, non-degree-granting institutions in the United States.
