For some time now, the arts education community has designed for broader outcomes for youth. These programs intentionally foster not only youth achievements within the arts or academics, but also youth and community thriving--through outcomes such as youth civic engagement, occupational identities, and wellness. In this report, the authors seek to build a shared language and framework based on this emergent work. The work starts with connected learning, a framework for thinking about how powerful learning happens, to propose a connected arts learning framework that focuses on how to achieve broader outcomes through the arts by building on youth interests and identities, investing in strong relationships with adults, peers, and families, and connecting youth to future opportunities. Rooted in a foundation of community cultural wealth, a connected arts learning framework looks at how these interconnected elements create meaningful culturally- and community-centered arts opportunities for young people. A connected arts learning view also shifts the common framing of the value of the arts, to recognize not only individual gains but also cultural and community benefits of arts learning. This report also describes five different approaches to foster connected arts learning and offers a case study for each, highlighting ways organizations are already implementing connected arts learning. These case studies illustrate how other arts educators might structure their work to advance the arts learning outcomes emphasized by the connected arts learning framework. The final section of this report also includes initial recommendations and guidance to design arts learning driven by the framework.
