Gateway to the Arts programming for the K-12 audience at varying levels of engagement to best suit the needs of individual classrooms. Our performance programs are a great way to be introduced to our roster of artists. Included with these 45-minute programs are Teacher Guides, which offer pre- and post-visit activites for classroom use. Residency programs are generally multi-session workshops with performing or teaching artists inside the classroom. However, a single workshop can often be added to a performance program to deepen the experience.  The Gateway Arts in Education Partnership is our most in-depth program as it includes initial and on-going professional development opportunities, in addition to a five session classroom residency.

    A Whirlwind of Collaboration

    Two densely-scheduled days this November marked the fruition of a collaborative project two years in the making, designed by Gateway to the Arts and the School of Music at Carnegie Mellon University. The goal was to assist the graduate chamber music ensembles at CMU in developing dynamic outreach programs for public school students grades K-12. Funded in part by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts, project coordinators Lisa Hoitsma of Gateway and Dr. Natalie Ozeas of CMU enlisted the expertise of the Grammy-nominated African-American woodwind quintet, Imani Winds, known world-wide for their high-quality outreach programming that focuses on excellent musicianship, audience participation and repertoire.
