Question: What do history, theater, math, puppets, English, juggling, social studies, music, science, and singing all have in common?
Answer: Springfield Arts Council’s ARTS IN THE CLASSROOM!
ARTS IN THE CLASSROOM brings professional performing artists to schools in Springfield and Clark County, enhancing day-to-day school room activities with exciting live performances!
ARTS IN THE CLASSROOM enriches the cultural education of students in our public, private and parochial schools, often serving as a first introduction to performing arts for many young people. The performances expand and enhance the arts education curriculum in schools where budget constraints have reduced or eliminated performing arts programs, and make a positive impact on young people in our community.
