  • 2010 Annual Report
    Making GOOD THE PROMISE Young Audiences, Inc. ANNUAL REPORT 2010 YOUNG AUDIENCES ARTS FOR LEARNING IS THE NATION’S LEADING SOURCE OF ARTS-IN-EDUCATION PROGRAMS AND SERVICES. Since 1952, Young Audiences has advanced the artistic and educational development of school students by bringing young people together with professional artists in all disciplines to learn, create and participate in the arts. YA Arts for Learning envisions a future in which the nation’s children and youth will have the opportunity to engage in quality arts learning experiences that nurture creativity, build cultural understanding and enhance the development of their learning and life skills. 1 EXPERIENCING ART The good news is, we remain the best at what we do. The better news is, we’re improving. Certainly, we have accomplished a great deal this year. Young Audiences Arts for Learning inspired more than five million students in 6,846 schools and community sites with performance demonstra- tions and workshops in dance, music, theater and the visual arts. We are the leading provider of arts-in-education services in the country. But America’s students are still losing ground in the inexorable competition with the rest of the world’s children in crucial skills like math and science. Too many of our kids are not living up to their potential. We won’t, we can’t accept that. Last year, Young Audiences Arts for Learning completed and adopted its first-ever network-wide strategic plan. It identified the attributes our children will need in order to succeed as students, as adults, as members of a fast-changing 21st century world.
