Eastern Washington Arts Recovery Project

ArtsEd Washington is collecting material and monetary donations to help students and teachers who lost their visual and performing arts equipment in the Eastern Washington fires. These items are more than just objects for entertainment.
They enable expression, healing, the joy of being creative, and they are important components of a meaningful school day.

In collaboration with Washington Art Education Association, Washington Music Educators Association, and Washington State Thespians,
we are honored to support a season of recovery, connection, and renewed creativity for impacted students and teachers. Based on preliminary feedback, we anticipate continuing to adapt our offerings at least into the beginning of 2027.

Join Ongoing Conversations
to Support Arts Access

After the pace of the Eastern Washington Arts Recovery project slows, ArtsEd Washington plans to compile our local insights and resources into a toolkit to help other
arts advocates support arts access when navigating community-wide disasters.
In the meantime, we also encourage you to explore the Disaster Readiness page from the National Endowment for the Arts.
