Since 1995, our organization, as part of the New York State’s Empire State Partnerships Program, and New York City’s Partnerships for Arts Education, has provided professional development services for teachers, paraprofessionals and school arts coordinators in theatre arts, language arts, dance, music, technology, and visual and media arts.  

The senior staff who provide our professional development services, consist of trained teaching artists who have four or more years of in-school arts in education instructional experience. 

All of the Company’s Teaching Artists have backgrounds working with youth and many have specific experience working in public schools.

Our teaching artists regularly attend professional development workshops conducted by credentialed individuals in the field of arts education with a concentration on ways to improve pedagogical methodology in delivery, assessment, evaluation documentation and dissemination of results of arts in education services.
