We envision a Rhode Island where all children and youth have access to rich and challenging arts learning opportunities in their homes, schools, and communities, thus enabling them to become creative and critical thinkers, effective communicators, responsible citizens, and knowledgeable adults. This mission of the Rhode Island Literacy in the Arts Task Force has focused and driven the work of arts educators across our small community.

Rhode Island is a very Pro-Art state. The Rhode Island State Council on the Arts is a state agency, supported by appropriations from the Rhode Island General Assembly and grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency. RISCA provides grants, technical assistance and staff support to arts organizations and artists, schools, community centers, social service organizations and local governments to bring the arts into the lives of Rhode Islanders.    The Rhode Island State Council on the Arts is an agency of the State of Rhode Island.
