National Arts Centre's Commitment to Youth and Education
The National Arts Centre's commitment to education is three-fold: to produce the very best of the performing arts for young audiences; to support the work of those teaching the arts in classrooms and homes by providing teaching resources that are accessible, engaging and educationally sound; and to provide training in music, theatre and dance for young and emerging artists at the highest level.
There are many programmes that young people are taking advantage
of at the National Arts Centre. Evening performances are very affordable
through our half-price and Live Rush ticket programmes and students
can attend free open rehearsals with the National Arts Centre Orchestra
and participate in the many live music, dance and theatre performances
aimed at student audiences. Not all performances are held at the
National Arts Centre. Theatre and music professionals will visit
schools to lead workshops and performance-demonstrations. There
are also opportunities for teacher training in the arts. For details
on all of our programmes for student audiences download the 2002-2003
Arts Alive brochure.
