Largely owing to budget cutbacks, arts education is scarce in many public schools, especially in disadvantaged communities. According to this report, though, a “strikingly different landscape,” is found outside of school. Why might this disparity exist? Digital technologies are offering young people new ways to engage in the arts on their own time and according to their own interests. The report provides an understanding of this new territory of “interest-driven” arts learning. It includes a rundown of schol¬arship in the areas of arts and out-of-school-hours learning; a framework for thinking about interest-driven arts learning in a digital age; an examination of young people’s media consump¬tion; and a survey of their creative endeavors online and elsewhere, along with a look at the proliferation of the technologies young people are using in the arts. The report concludes with thoughts about challenges and suggestions for future research, practice and policy, such as connecting youth to helpful online resources (e.g., Kickstarter) and using social networking to invite young people to display their work in curated online exhibits.
