Center Theatre Group's education programs support the next generation of theatre-goers, artists, and artisans encouraging them to learn more about themselves, the world, and the arts. Through workshops, events, discussions, and other programs, we encourage, support, and connect young people with Theatre, and, with one another, we also support educators and schools through a variety of programs and resources designed to bring Theatre into the classroom, bring students to the Theatre, and improve the quality of the arts education for all students. Education has been an integral part of our work since 1971 when we launched our programming for young people as a means of amplifying the diminishing state of arts education programming in southern California. Each year, our programs reach thousands of students around the region. Center Theatre Group is committed to investing in the future of art through the training, support, and development of emerging young artists and early-career arts professionals. Whether we're hosting a pre-show meet-up for young theatre-goers, a Theatre technique, or undergraduate and graduate interns, we're building a creative home, a community of peers, and an incubator and laboratory for the next generation of theatre-makers and leaders. Over the past decade, we've commissioned 65 shows and produced 40 world premieres making us one of the nation's leading producers of ambitious new works. We cultivate artists of all generations contributing to the cultural scene in and beyond Los Angeles by hosting workshops, nurturing playwrights, supporting local theatres, and creating art by and with the community. We encourage our audiences and our community to take a play off the stage and into their lives. Our interactive programs, from community-based art and digital content to donor experiences and pre- and post-show events, reach across generations, demographics, and circumstances.
