Art Buzz is designed to showcase the works of DC’s top artists and actively raise funds for the DC Arts and Humanities Education Collaborative’s Arts for Every Student (AFES) program. AFES provides DC public and chartered schools with access to cultural opportunities throughout the Washington metropolitan area.

The DC Collaborative ensures that underserved DC public schools benefit from the region’s rich array of arts amenities. They provide free transportation and free tickets to storytelling presentations, music, dance, and theater experiences; plus trips to The Kennedy Center and museums. In addition the Collaborative provides teachers with professional development sessions and study materials, adding further incentive to integrate the arts into their daily lessons. In the 2006-2007 school year, more than 31,000 students and teachers visited cultural institutions through AFES.

Your support and the support of the participating artist provides DC public school students with lifelong memories and an entrance into the arts community.
