Abstract
The purpose of this master’s research project is to explore how the public school system and arts organizations in Puerto Rico are addressing the arts education and artistic talent development needs of Puerto Rican high school age youth. This research will identify what arts education opportunities are currently available for Puerto Rican high school students. The research will focus on the availability and accessibility of arts programs to youth from low-income families, and the role of arts organizations in the community in supporting arts education, in and out of school settings.
