Arts and Cultural Education Services (ACES) Guide 

The Office of Arts and Special Projects is pleased to provide the NYC public school community with the Arts and Cultural Education Services (ACES) Guide. The ACES Guide is designed to help school leaders, teachers, parents, and other family members learn about the variety of education programs offered by NYC's rich arts and cultural community. Review the guide to access a searchable listing of hundreds of organizations and their programming in the areas of dance, music, theater, visual arts, film, and general cultural experiences.

The ACES Guide features only NYCDOE-registered vendors and highlights organizations who have secured citywide NYCDOE contracts for Arts Education Services. 

Borough Arts Festivals 

The Borough Arts Festivals are year-end events taking place in each borough to celebrate the talents and creativity of students and their teachers through arts exhibitions and public performances.  

Be on the lookout for the 24-25 application!
