Hager  \nThe afterschool community has long embraced the arts as part of the constellation of services offered to youth during nonschool hours. However, there has been much less comprehensive research in, and support for, the arts outside of school. Despite the fact that the United States has many local, regional, and state examples of excellent partnerships between the arts and afterschool, as well as model community-based afterschool youth arts programs, in the arts learning field these partnerships  \nand programs are only beginning to foster evidencebased research and disseminate “best practices.” This paper calls attention to community youth arts in order to address the need for more formal and researchbased alliances between the arts learning and afterschool fields.  \nIn this paper, arts learning is a broad term that incorporates learning in and through the arts both during and after school. Arts-in-education takes place during school hours and has academic goals. Community-based  \nyouth organizations (CYOs) focus on serving youth locally; many CYOs have the arts as central parts of their missions. Community youth arts (CYA) refers specifically to partnerships between arts and non-arts organizations that offer OST youth arts activities. One critical distinction is between arts-in-education , which takes place in school, and the broader arts learning, which can incorporate a variety of arts activities; serve youth both in and outside of school; and have a range of goals including academic support, community building, and social development.  \nLOri L. HAGEr, Ph. D., has over 30 years’ experience in the community arts field. She was professionally trained as an artist-in-theschools, as an actor, and as an arts manager. She has directed and evaluated community youth arts programs, and her research focuses on the history, policies, and programs of community youth arts development. She is now faculty in Arts and Administration at the University of Oregon, where she teaches graduate courses and conducts research in arts education policy and practice, community youth arts, and community arts development. She serves as associate director of community arts for the Center for Community Arts and Cultural Policy and is on the founding advisory board of the Community Arts Convening and Research Project.  \nSPriNGTiME (fLOWEr) focuses on something colorful.  \nOUr WOrLD iN PiCTUrES  \nHistorical Perspective (Bedard, 1989; Comer, 1946) .
