We are offering a FREE seminar that is designed to offer school administrators, teachers and parents an arts-related experience that can help them rediscover the value of music, dance, theatre and visual arts in the classroom.

The seminar will be held at local school in the San Fernando Valley where guests will participate in a hands-on workshop demonstration led by one of our dynamic teaching artists. There will also be an opportunity to meet your Regional Programs Manager who is connecting with district and school leaders within your area to formulate comprehensive arts programs.

How can we make sure school is a joyful place where students learn to develop and share all their many talents?

These are the key questions and challenges that inspire the Music Center's leadership in arts education. As one of the nation's great performing arts centers, we feel a special responsibility and opportunity to support quality arts education. We believe the purpose of schooling is to transmit the key understandings of the human experience to the next generation and to prepare them with the skills and knowledge they will need to contribute to society. Quality arts education does both. It connects students to the key ideas and meaning communicated through art, music, dance, and theatre. Arts programs also foster the type of creativity and innovation young people will need to contribute to our future, whether they plan to be an artist, a traffic engineer, or a research scientist.
