Arts All Across is an arts advocacy initiative founded by Giovanna Ward under the Miss America Opportunity, dedicated to expanding access to quality arts education for all, no matter their background or ability. Rooted in the belief that the arts are a right, not a privilege, the initiative works to eliminate barriers —financial, physical, and social—that prevent students and communities from engaging in the creative process.

From developing arts curriculum for Title I schools to teaching dance in retirement homes and partnering with inclusive nonprofits, Giovanna is on a mission to break down barriers and bring the joy of creativity to all communities. Her advocacy has reached wide audiences through social media, earned her Top 10 placements at both Miss Maryland and Miss Massachusetts, and has garnered thousands of dollars in scholarships from the Miss America Scholarship Foundation. Whether it's in a classroom, on stage, or in the community, Arts All Across is all about using the power of the arts to uplift and inspire!
