ArtsReach
The California Arts Project Newsletter
October 2024

|
ArtsReach has been a pivotal communication tool, instrumental in supporting the achievement of remarkable milestones in arts education, including the establishment of the University of California F requirement and California Subject Matter Project in the arts, known as The California Arts Project (TCAP).
We are thrilled to announce the return of TCAP’s ArtsReach Newsletter, now in an exciting new format! This beloved newsletter has a storied history, tracing back to its inception with mimeographed copies created by leaders of TCAP’s roots in “Fine Arts Curriculum Implementation Center” and shared among dedicated California school and university arts educators.
As we embrace and expand this fresh format, we are not only celebrating our legacy but also ushering in a vibrant new era for arts education in California.

Join us on this exhilarating journey as we continue to inspire, connect, and elevate the arts education community!
