The State of the Arts in America's Schools Video (DVD)

The State of the Arts takes a direct look at the current outlook for fine arts programs in United States public schools. It showcases the vanishing opportunities for children to experience music, dance, theater and other visual arts through field trips and school programs. Experts express their growing concern for the future of the arts in the U.S. and debate the topic of whether fine arts should be seen as an essential asset to the country's children or an elitist diversion of resources from the core curriculums of public schools.
