Burbank Arts For All Foundation holds a Community Exchange featuring the BUSD Superintendent and other speakers who will discuss the current budget concerns and cuts and discuss solutions and advocacy steps.

Bret Harte Elementary School's annual Open House drew picnicking families and engaged students with STEM activities and scavenger hunts.

Students, parents and community members learned more about the budget cuts Burbank Unified faces and took stacks of flyers to hand out to Burbank residents with information on the ongoing budget crisis for public schools.

Halfway to their goal, the nonprofit organization has 10 days remaining to raise another $100,000 to reach their target of $200,000 to support arts education in Burbank public schools.
