It is through the performance that children have the opportunity to see the artist’s work, his/her passion for his work and understand what is possible at a level of excellence. Young Audiences of Connecticut presents performing artists that receive local, national and international acclaim. The performance can provide a broad context in which individual class work can be approached.
The staff at YAC, knowledgeable about both the academic needs and the artist’s program content, can advise schools on the selection of artists who support school objectives. Additionally, the performance provides an experience the school may share as a community and allows students the exposure to a variety of arts disciplines that, for many, would never be achieved outside of school.
Young Audiences of Connecticut performances run for 45 minutes unless otherwise specified. Please see artists’ pages for details about specific performances.
