Education
As a cultural and artistic hub, the Atlas is also dedicated to developing the next generation of artists and audiences through educational activities and programming. The Atlas has four performance spaces and we often host free events in our lobby. We produce Atlas Presents performances and rent spaces to other artist groups so they can create their own productions.
With a strong focus on arts education, the Atlas trains artists of tomorrow. Currently the Atlas hosts a variety of arts education experiences including our City at Peace program along with our Atlas Stagecraft Training and Apprenticeship Program (ASTAP).
Dance is a major offering at the Atlas through the work of Resident Arts Partner Joy of Motion Dance Center for children and adults.
In the summer months, we welcome Adventure Theatre/MTC with their Summer Musical Theatre Camp for children.
During the school year, we offer our Theatre for the Very Young performances that introduce kids ages one and up to theatre.
There is something for everyone at the Atlas!
