The New York State Alliance for Arts Education (NYSAAE)
serves a broad constituency of arts advocates, including
educators, artists, administrators of arts organizations,
parents and interested citizens across the state. NYSAAE
disseminates information about model programs, funding and
standards of excellence, develops training models for
constituent organizations, and advocates for arts
education at the local, state and national levels.
Founded in 1973, NYSAAE is
located in the Cultural Education Center in
Albany, NY. NYSAAE is supported by The
New York State Council on the Arts, The New
York State Education Department, and its membership.
It has received grants recently to initiate
innovative professional development programs
from The Dana Foundation, and the New York
Times Company Foundation School Arts Rescue
Initiative (SARI), and the John F. Kennedy
Center for the Performing Arts. NYSAAE is
part of a network of state alliances affiliated
with the Kennedy Center.
