Mission Statement
Young Audiences transforms the lives and education of our youth through the arts by connecting educators, professional artists, and communities. We provide artistically excellent programs, expertise, and resources to ensure opportunities for all students across the state of Maryland. We strive to: Bring more arts into Maryland schools by tapping into the talent of the artists living in our communities. Train teachers of all subject areas to use the arts to engage students in the learning process through arts integration. Ensure disadvantaged schools have more access to the arts by covering the financial gap between what schools can afford and what artists need to earn.
