Arts education equips students with tools for processing their stress & emotions. The arts are proven to increase students' mental & physical wellbeing. They MUST be part of any and all SEL conversations. The importance of arts education is non-negotiable. #ArtsEdRebuilds

Did you know that when Ella Fitzgerald couldn’t get booked by clubs and TV because she was black, Marilyn Monroe offered to come to a nightclub every night and sit in the front row if they let Ella sing? That’s how you use your privilege for good.
