In this episode of The Good Life EDU Podcast, we delve into the NDE Arts NOW Grant, a transformative initiative made possible by the Nebraska Arts Council providing $180,000 that funded the purchase of materials in 23 Nebraska school districts. Together with educators from three of those districts, we discuss how this funding helped foster creativity, create community, inspire innovation, and more in arts education. Special thanks to Cody Talarico of NDE and Anne Alston of the Nebraska Arts Council for all your support of this grant and for lifting up these stories from the classroom.
