Events
Since 1965, art educator members of the California Art Education Association have provided leadership that has shaped the field of research and practice in art education and positioned CAEA as the premier professional community for our field in California. CAEA is committed to supporting art educators in their quest to excel as leaders. The CAEA state, regional, and area conferences, special programs, and events explore the multifaceted roles of the art educator through the prism of knowledge, understanding, and leadership.
