Performing Arts Workshop

Through arts education programs, Performing Arts Workshop strives to promote a process-oriented approach to arts education through artist residencies and related programs. The Workshop reaches young people of diverse cultural, developmental, educational, and economic backgrounds through broad outreach, including partnerships with schools and community organizations.
Fostering students'' self-efficacy and problem-solving abilities through a dynamic, first-hand learning experience, the Workshop gives young people opportunities to discover the power of the arts to bring about personal and social transformation. The Workshop also trains artists and educators to teach the creative process to young people and to integrate learning through the arts into classroom curriculum. Our multicultural staff of 19 professional artists reached over 5000 children of diverse ethnicities, abilities, languages, and socio-economic backgrounds through 163 residencies in 30 San Francisco, San Mateo, Alameda, and Marin County Schools.
