ARTS SCHOOLS NETWORK

Arts Schools Network (ASN) is a national membership association that serves leaders of specialized arts schools, colleges, universities, conservatories, districts, and related organizations. The organization’s work focuses on professional development, peer networking, best-practice sharing, and advocacy to improve arts education and student outcomes. ASN operates a membership model (stating an active audience of 400+ member arts schools and a broad constituency of arts leaders, counselors, teachers, and students) and runs signature programs including its annual conference, leadership retreats, awards programs, and an Exemplary School designation. ASN’s central office presence is in Houston, Texas, and its public materials list Tax ID / EIN 52-1382258, which matches public nonprofit registries and ASN’s own filings. In the last 2–3 years ASN has remained active nationally: it held its Annual Conference in Washington, D.C. (October 22–25, 2024), continued virtual Leadership Circle/League programming through 2024–2026, and announced future conferences (Sarasota, 2025; San Diego, 2026). ASN continues to present annual awards and multi-year Exemplary School designations recognizing school-level excellence in arts education.
