NEA FINE ARTS CAUCUS LEADERS HEAD TO DC TO WORK FOR NEA ARTS EDUCATORS --NEA Fine Arts Caucus Executive Board member, Ginger Fox (CA), and NEA Fine Arts Caucus National Chair, Tom McLaughlin (IA), travel to Washington DC next week to work with NEA Policy folks, Mike Kaspar and Becky Wissink, to discuss the National Coalition for Core Arts Standards soft launch, concerns about trends we are seeing in the implementation and lack of implementation of STEAM programs around the nation, concerns about using arts integration and maintaining the integrity of discrete curriculum for the arts, how we might strengthen our relationship with the Americans for the Arts and the Arts Action Fund and our next steps before launching business at this year's NEA annual meeting and Representative Assembly. Ginger and Tom have packed their two days in DC full of meeting to advocate for our members across the country.
