Greater Birmingham Arts Education Collaborative

Research shows that well-designed and well-executed arts education programs are a necessary part of college and workforce readiness. The long-term benefits of arts education on student achievement are incredible – yet, many Alabama students have minimal to no access to this type of learning.

The Arts Collab is a proud part of the Artistic Literacy Consortium, a statewide partnership funded by Alabama State Council on the Arts, the Alabama State Department of Education and the National Endowment for the Arts. Additional support is provided by the Alabama Arts Alliance and the Alabama Institute for Education in the Arts. Our mission is to empower our community to increase student access to quality arts education as part of the Artistic Literacy Consortium. The Arts Collab provides arts education programs to schools, convenes Birmingham’s Arts Education Network, and provides professional development to teachers and arts professionals on arts integration. The Arts Collab is a nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization.
