FAAE is on a mission to ensure that every student in Florida has a complete education which includes the arts. The arts are essential to educating the whole child, providing avenues for expression and for understanding and appreciating the world in which we live. Research continues to show the many ways that students benefit from arts education.

Please join us on this mission. There is a membership level for everyone -- from students and individuals to organizations and philanthropists.

When you or your organization join FAAE, you lend your financial support and you add your voice to the chorus of voices supporting arts education for every Florida student. Florida's students deserve arts education; your membership can help us ensure they receive it.
