Opening doors to the wonders of the performing arts—that’s what the Hopkins Center's Outreach & Arts Education (OAE) programs are all about. A child attends a dance performance for the very first time, followed by a wide-eyed encounter with a real, live dancer. A teenager dons a giant mask to find herself at the heart of an outdoor puppet pageant. Our six Outreach & Arts Education programs touch the lives of nearly 19,000 students and community members each year, throughout the rural Upper Valley of Vermont and New Hampshire. |
