Why We Do It
ASI and the Community

More and more, communities across our region are stretched for creative public resources. Declining funding for arts education has forced schools to cut art programs, while shrinking budgets prevent libraries and recreation centers from offering visual-arts programs of their own. ASI aims to fill the artistic void in our communities — not only to promote the visual arts themselves, but to build wider skills that help students thrive in all subjects, and that help promote civic vitality.
