PAE coordinates with CNY schools, cultural organizations, and community groups to develop and implement arts programs for children beyond the regular school day. We are a member of the CNY Out of School Time Network, a consortium of community-based organizations that provide programming for youth. It offers training and support to its members and their staffs. To contact CNYOSTN, email Alis Sefick.

CNYOSTN is our regional representative of the New York State Afterschool Network (NYSAN). NYSAN is the state-wide leader in best practices and advocacy, working to build the capacity and commitment of communities to increase the quality and availability of programs during non-school hours.

We are also a member of the CNY Arts and Culture Leadership Alliance, which works in concert with the Cultural Resources Council to unify local arts and culture institutions to advocate for a cohesive community that strengthens the livability and economic vitality of Central New York.
