Professional Development for Educators and Artists

There's no question about the benefit children derive from exposure to inspiring art. The impact of a performance can be greater if it is reinforced by the lessons of a teacher trained to weave the experience into the curriculum. . . and the effectiveness of an artist workshop will increase if the artist is trained in teaching techniques. Young Audiences works to further this cross- disciplinary adult education through professional development workshops and institutes like these.

"The discovery of our creative inner selves goes on for a lifetime. We never stop learning, we never stop growing. Even as adults, it is important to continue our schooling. For artists and teachers this is especially true." ---Wynton Marsalis, Jazz Artist, YA National Board Member
