Education and Community Engagement at The Mann

The Mann Center for the Performing Arts’ Education & Community Engagement Program is the region’s largest free education program, having served nearly 47,000 young people this past season. By presenting over 25 school performances with our Connecting Arts-N-Schools Series, we made it possible for thousands of students to experience the sights, sounds, and rhythms that celebrate the magic and richness of “live” performances – often for the very first time! To deepen the educational experience, our ArtsTeach @ The Mann Series presented 43 energetic participatory workshops. These workshops helped students (Grades PK –12) to comprehend, retain and learn more effectively by utilizing music, theater, and dance to underscore lessons in other core subjects. Free transportation for these workshops was provided to all participants. Our annual Young People’s Concert Series presented four international performances by professional, emerging and young artists on our main stage, with a total audience of over 31,000!
