HELP SUPPORT THE GPAC ARTS EDUCATION FUND
GPAC strives to enrich the community through educational programs and presentations that increase access and appreciation for the arts. Our programs at GPAC provide high quality arts experiences and hands on training to children all the way to adults. Additionally, we are committed to extending our reach through free artist residencies and master classes in area schools, community centers and universities. Programs include Peanut Butter & Jam, ArtSavvy, GPAC Youth Symphony, Ballet classes, School Matinees and Summer Camps.
The GPAC Youth Symphony Program is dedicated to the highest standards of music and is open to career-oriented students as well as those who wish to study music for the pure enjoyment, inherent benefits of and appreciation for the art form.

Part of our Arts Education Programming, the series introduces children ages 8 and under to a variety of genres including music, dance, and multicultural arts in an informal family concert setting. Parents and children are invited to move and groove in these highly interactive performances held on scheduled Saturdays at 9:30 and 10:30 a.m. (unless otherwise noted) in the Watkins Studio Theater. Tickets are Pay-What-You-Can.
