Helping Children in Need

Too many students come to school academically unprepared and never catch up. Some students can't succeed even in "good" schools because they just don't connect with the standard pedagogic approach. Performances and workshops from Young Audiences artists can reach these students and engage them in the educational process for the first time.

"I grew up in a tough neighborhood in East LA, so I'm not going to feed you some line about how the arts are great or make the world more beautiful. I am going to let you in on a fact. Arts education makes a smarter kid . . . a kid who studies better, thinks creatively, and solves problems. . . even if he's not a great artist."
