Colfax Denver, Colorado80203 February 1991 Printing generously provided by Apache Corporation Introduction Recognizing that "The Arts": Dance, Music, Theatre, and Visual Art provide a natural arena for teaching multiculturalism to students of all ages, the Colorado Department of Education is pleased to provide these Multicultural Resources for Arts Education. This Resource Guide provides information to Colorado schools about printed, disc, video, and audio tape visual prints, as well as the local "human" community resources that are available. It will assist teachers and students in better understanding the rich mosaic that various cul- tures bring to Colorado. Rather than becoming a melting pot where those cultures assimilate, we recognize and celebrate individual differ- ences; we learn and teach acceptance and appreciation of those contri- butions that all cultures have made to our society. Currently, the four most prevalent ethnic minorities in Colorado are featured: African American, Asian American, Hispanic American, and Native American cultures. Dance, Music, Theatre, and Visual Art teachers will find a wealth of materials here to aid in the development of interdisciplinary units within their lesson plans. Together with other classroom teachers, interdiscipli- nary work can truly add a broad new learning interest for all students. On behalf of the Colorado Department of Education, I would like to thank the many volunteers who worked to develop Multicultural Resources for Arts Education. Special thanks go to Willie Hill, Jr., University of Colorado-Boulder, School of Music; Angelique Acevedo, Jefferson County Public Schools; and Patricia Burger, Colorado Depart- ment of Education, for their invaluable service in producing this Guide.
