I learned about this website at the National Guild for Community Arts Education Conference. There are some wonderful resources and articles here. Enjoy!

Over the past several years, Choregus has provided numerous free educational performances and last week's community offerings were especially remarkable. Diavolo Dance Theater hosted workshops in local public schools- spreading the buzz before their educational performance on May 18th at the Tulsa PAC, Chapman Music Hall. Project CREATES had the opportunity to bring all K-6th grade students from Re*****on Elementary, a Project CREATES partner school, to the Chapman Theatre for this exciting show.

Ari Christopher, Associate director of Project CREATES, joyfully recalls a Re*****on 5th grade girl who stopped her in the hallway two weeks before the Diavolo field trip to thank her. When Mrs. Christopher mentioned the workshops scheduled at Re*****on Elementary on May 15th and 17th, the student exclaimed, "You mean those famous dancers are coming here!?" Her amazement moved Christopher to tears. It was like the girl stood up taller and felt important because the 'famous dancers' were coming to her school.

We are SO excited about our field trip to the PAC to see DIAVOLO, Thank you Choregus Productions!

You could come with us. We are looking for about 30 volunteers to see the show with us and model audience etiquette. It's about the coolest volunteer opportunity around! We will be meeting in the Chapman Lobby (on 3rd street between Cincinnati and Boulder) on Friday May 18th at 9:40.

If you would like to volunteer as a chaperone, please call Christine at: 918.592.7996 or email me at [email protected]

Thank you!
