MISSION: Through the creative arts, we inspire, motivate and challenge children to achieve their full potential; we provide professional development for teachers and artists; and we leadthe community in advocating for more arts education in schools.
Without Young Audiences of San Diego, the arts are unavailable to most children because families either can not afford them or, with both parents working away from home, there is not enough time to take children to arts activities.
The arts:
Are fundamental to what it means to be an educated person
Are the richest and most far-reaching expressions of human creativity, achievement and communication
Inspire self-confidence
Build basic and critical thinking and problem-solving skills
Allow students to develop their self-discipline and important social, cognitive, affective, and psychomotor skills
Expose young people to many cultures and viewpoints, fostering ethnic pride and intercultural and interracial understanding
Reach the hard-to-teach student and keep kids interested in school
Music
Theatre
Dance
Visual Arts
Ballroom Dance
Literary Arts
For their commitment to integrating the arts into the education and lives of all children of our region through an extraordinary range of high quality performances, residencies and workshops that help young people identify their cultural roots and discover their creative wings, we are proud to have Young Audiences of San Diego as our Cause of the Quarter.
