Theatre Season

GET INVOLVED!!

Text Box: The theatre is a very important area of the arts for The Community Arts Connection to focus on. We recognize the wealth of talent in the community, and we want to make opportunities available for those already involved in theatre as well as those who have never explored the theatre. Our goal is to provide the tools necessary for personal growth as writers, actors, directors, and designers - to experience all aspects of the theatre arts. Click here to find out about more opportunities for our 2010 - 2011 theatre season.

Text Box: INCREASING ARTS DEMAND THROUGH BETTER ARTS LEARNING “All the benefits of the arts begin with individual captivation and intense absorption.” Individuals who experience and learn about the arts at a young age are more likely to reap those benefits over their lifetimes. However, there are troubling signs that demand for the arts is becoming less and less widely shared. A likely explanation is that arts learning opportunities have been dwindling over the last 30 years, both in school and outside. Knowledge In Brief, The Wallace Foundation Building arts appreciation involves giving people the skills and knowledge they need to have rich encounters with art that keep them coming back for more - the ability to see, hear and feel what art has to offer; to create within an art form; to understand the historical and cultural context of works of art; and to interpret and draw deeper meaning from works of art as appreciation grows. With the current reduction of available funding in our schools it is becoming necessary for arts organizations to pick up the slack in arts education for our young people. We’d love to hear from you with your thoughts and suggestions on programs or classes that would help give you and the youth in our community a deeper appreciation of the arts.
