"'The authors deftly demonstrate that when skilled teaching artists and thoughtful classroom teachers partner, their dynamic exchange impacts both teacher practice and student learning. Classrooms become active, vibrant studios of creative exploration, informed by genuine content and modeled after the artistic process of ongoing reflection and revision.'"
Peter Avery
"'The authors of Arts Integration in Education make a powerful argument for weaving art into every aspect of education. If you're an administrator, teacher, or parent who is concerned about the erosion of school art programs, this book will give you the ammunition you need to make the case for reform.'"

"'This book so beautifully encapsulates how gravely necessary innovation has become in our education system, with a wide range of voices that all agree: We must not allow the arts to become privatized, we must keep growing as students, teachers, and artists to create a better world.'"
