Welcome to the Connecticut Art Education Association's online portal
The Connecticut Art Education Association, Inc. is a professional organization which represents the art teachers of the state. Its goals include promoting visual arts as an essential component of educational programs, improving the conditions of teaching art, and sharing and encouraging effective teaching practices in art education. To support these goals, CAEA has sponsored public discussions, institutes, conferences, and special programs for public and private school art teachers, and art education students and faculty at Connecticut colleges and universities. A newsletter is published to keep the membership informed of state and national art educational issues, student and teacher accomplishments, exhibits, and other sponsored projects. The newsletter, known as Visions, is being reconfigured to an online magazine which should be up and running soon. CAEA members publish articles, reports, surveys, and curriculum information to encourage and promote curriculum development and assessment. These concerns are addressed each year at the annual professional development activity, the Fall Conference, which is organized to include expert speakers and workshops on a variety of topics of interest to art teachers throughout the state.
