The Arts Education Partnership (AEP) is a private, nonprofit coalition of education, arts, business, philanthropic, and government organizations that was formed in 1995 through a cooperative agreement among four agencies: the NEA, the U.S. Education Department, the National Assembly of State Arts Agencies, and the Council of Chief State School Officers. Its purpose is "to demonstrate and promote the essential role of arts education in enabling all students to succeed in school, life, and work.”

The editors of the Reader received a letter from Deborah Obalil, author of Barriers and Motivations to Increased Arts Usage among Medium and Light Users. This study was discussed in "Readings in Cultural Participation" by Frances Phillips, published on page 18 in the autumn 1999 issue of GIA's Newsletter (now the Reader). In her letter, Obalil pointed out that the Newsletter article misrepresented Barriers and Motivations in a few key ways.
