For 45 years, our Artists in Schools program has brought the arts into classrooms across Wake County, reaching countless students. Last year alone, we worked with 269 artists facilitating 419 school-day programs across 141 schools. These programs are more than just performances—they’re opportunities for students to engage with the arts in ways that foster creativity, academic growth, and cultural understanding. But we’re not stopping here. We need your support to ensure that AIS continues to thrive for the next 45 years. Through our $45 for 45 campaign, a monthly donation of just $45 can provide pro bono arts programs to Title I schools across the county, ensuring every student has access to the arts. Your contribution directly impacts the future of arts education in Wake County. 💡 With your help, we can reach even more students, providing experiences that inspire creativity and build stronger school communities. 🌟 Ready to make a difference? Join us today by donating at https://lnkd.in/eYgzYy8d Every donation helps us expand our reach and provide more students with the magic of the arts. Thank you for helping us MAKE ART HAPPEN across Wake County! #UnitedArtsWake #ArtistsInSchools #AIS4all #AIS #ArtsInEducation #WakeCounty #SupportTheArts Wake County Public School System

About us
Creating a Better Community Through the Arts Placing Teaching Artists in Schools Because of the Artists in the Schools program, more than 100,000 Wake school children see a theatre, dance or music performance or get a week-long artist visit every year. Established for more than 30 years, Artists in the Schools continues to grow in popularity at a time when more formal arts instruction in schools is being cut. Without the program, many children would not be exposed to art in any other way. Championing the Arts Outside Raleigh United Arts reaches beyond Raleigh to enhance the lives of all Wake County residents. Our funding, for example, helps provide musicians for a senior dance, multi-cultural performers for an outdoor concert series, or children’s activities in a downtown festival--all enlivening life in the towns in our county. Building the Wake Arts Community United Arts helps individual artists and new arts groups who need seed funding to grow. And by providing training, marketing and advocacy, United Arts is strong force promoting the growth of all arts in Wake County.
