*By Daily Press staff*

If you have something to say about the local school district’s fine arts programs, you’ll have a chance next week.

The Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District Advisory Committee on the Fine Arts will have its first meeting of the school year on Sept. 23 from 7:15 p.m. to 9:15 p.m. The meeting will be held in the board room on the second floor of the district offices, located at 1651 16th Street.

Parents, teachers, students and community members interested in arts education in the school district (dance, drama, music, and visual arts) are invited to attend. Participants will include Tom Whaley, district fine arts coordinator, and Dr. Jose Escarce, the board of education liaison to the committee. There will be an opportunity for public comment at the beginning of the meeting.
