Affiliated with the national Young Audiences Arts for Learning network
Announcement: As we navigate a leadership transition and focus on financial planning, our summer programming will center on Arts, Care, and Connection. This intentional pause in other activities will help strengthen our foundation as we prepare to relaunch our core Right Brain Initiative this fall—supporting students, schools, and teaching artists with renewed energy and focus. Arts for Learning Northwest remains deeply committed to making arts and creativity accessible to all.
Students learn the art of mime and some mime illusions (the wall, the walk in place, fixed point in space, the stairs, the elevator, the escalator, leans, characters) and use these and other dramatic skills to act out stories they create.
