Whether through a performance program, professional development for your classroom teachers and specialists, or an artist residency in your classrooms, Gateway's programs are learner-centered, tied to the curriculum and the PA Academic Standards. All of our activities include teacher guides and/or lesson plans to assist educators in continuing and deepening the learning opportunities after the artist's visit has ended.
We take pride in the diversity of the talented performing and visual artists on our roster. Not merely artists or performers, these professionals are teaching artists. They have been chosen because of their artistic qualifications and their ability to communicate with children and teachers. In much the same way that Gateway is a resource for students and educators, we are a resource to artists too. Not only do we connect them to audiences, we offer ongoing professional development to artists to strengthen their relationships with those audiences.
