Dana Foundation
2002
If you care about educating children in the arts, you may benefit from this 157-page handbook published by the Dana Foundation and based on a symposium that Dana sponsored a year ago. It contains thousands of tips, conceptual and practical advice for anyone interested in creating an "arts-centered" school, charter or otherwise, and fascinating glimpses of a number of such schools that are operating today. It defines the arts broadly, its examples range widely and its essays span a wide array of school issues and perspectives. Surf to http://www.dana.org/books/press/artshandbook/artsbook.pdf.
