A pivotal moment for arts education advocacy is approaching. A proposed $6 billion reduction in federal education funding would have substantial consequences for school budgets. This webinar will explore current federal funding allocations supporting music and arts education and will feature a demonstration of the Ed Trust’s “FY 26 Federal Funding At Risk” tool. Participating speakers include NAfME Assistant Executive Director for Advocacy and Public Policy Amanda Karhuse, Senior Manager of State Advocacy and Equity Jazzmone Sutton, and EdTrust Director of P-12 Research and Data Analytics Ivy Morgan.
