Why Arts Education Matters

Arts Education programs are often under-funded by state and local governments, despite overwhelming evidence that access to the arts greatly contribute to students’ overall success at school.

The benefits of Arts Education during formative years help kids:

  • Engage with school and reduce stress
  • Develop social-emotional and interpersonal skills
  • Enrich their life experiences
  • Handle constructive criticism in productive ways
  • Bolster overall academic achievement
  • Improve focus

What Our Community is Saying 

I enjoyed how much my daughter learned, singing, dancing, working with props, working with a team, and learning about different components of theater like costume, mics, staging, etc.

JUNIE B. JONES JR. PARENT

The high-level of theatre that was achieved with such young kids. It was an amazing experience for them, for us as parents, and the Marquette community as a whole. –
