The National Guild of Community Schools of the Arts is America's service association for organizations that provide access to high quality arts education so that all people may participate in the arts according to their interests and abilities. The Guild's national network encompasses community arts schools; arts centers; and education divisions of museums, universities, local arts agencies and performing arts companies, among others. Collectively, the Guild's 400+ member institutions provide arts instruction to more than one million students each year, often in collaboration with public schools, after-school programs, hospitals, senior centers, and social service agencies to increase communities' access to arts education. www.nationalguild.org
