Collaborations, Collisions, and Connections: The CAN Model of Professional Learning for Arts Educators and Leaders
Super Session
Josh Streeter, Amy Appleton, Kendall Crabbe, Nicole Robinson

Connected Arts Networks (CAN) support in-service teachers in building vibrant communities and sustainable professional learning models by engaging in ED&I and SEL practices, along with peer-to-peer mentorship. Collaboration across four national arts organizations in visual arts, theatre, music, and dance, as well as NYC Public Schools, provides an opportunity to create unique discipline-specific virtual Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) while collectively moving the field forward. This session explores the following: 

  • How can we develop sustainable professional development models to serve fine arts educators in virtual spaces? 
  • How can in-service educators engage in innovative models for making, working, playing, and presenting? 
  • How might we reimagine and redefine leadership and coaching in preK–12 schools
