Performing Arts Program
In November 2008, the Hewlett Foundation newsletter profiled the East Bay Center for the Performing Arts and its Director, Jordan Simmons. The Center has been providing artistic opportunities to youth who would not otherwise have these experiences. Photo courtesy of Max D'Ambrosio.
In 2008, the Performing Arts Program pursued three goals:
- To ensure that exceptional works of art are created, performed, and preserved
- To provide more opportunities for participation in arts experiences
- To guarantee that arts education is a part of all California students' learning experience
To achieve these goals, the Program made $20.9 million in grants to 118 organizations.
