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.

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. Creativity. Adaptability. Cooperation. Curiosity. Productivity. Accordingly, we expanded our mission to include the inculcation of these critical learning and life skills.

This year we are leveraging our unique and considerable strengths to deliver on the promise of that mission.

3 UNDERSTANDING ART

Young Audiences Arts for Learning has 29 affiliates, each of which is a laboratory for innovative ideas. We have 58 years’ worth of contacts and partnerships with schools, teachers, artists and learning experts who lead their fields. Together we have established an ongoing Working Group that represents the thinking and real-world experiences of all these constituencies. It is charged with honing and implementing a signature approach to our programming, one that is resolutely child-centered, results-driven and demonstrably effective.

Under the guidance of the Working Group, we are weaving into the fabric of all our core, high-quality arts services four signature elements: experiencing art, understanding art, creating art and connecting art to other learning. These elements provide an organizing backdrop for all Young Audiences Arts for Learning performance demonstrations, workshops and residencies. Yet they still allow, indeed encourage, teaching artists to be responsive to the specific needs of a given audience. As such, the signature elements are touchstones that help guide students to artistic and educational experiences that are deeply personal, meaningful and measurable.

CREATING ART

A reinvigorated spirit of teamwork between the national organiza- tion and the affiliates, both within and outside the Working Group, in combination with an ambitious strategic plan and a renewed mission, has already achieved tangible results.

The MetLife Foundation has granted Young Audiences $300,000 to fund a two-year residency entitled MetLife Learning for Life. In year one, six affiliates focused on the design and development of the program, specifically keying on the four signature elements. In year two, 11 affiliates were selected to receive a share of the grant. They, along with other affiliates that have won grants for the long-standing Young Audiences’ Classical Initiative, participated in a Professional Development and Artist Training session led by the Working Group in Atlanta, Georgia in August.

Also in August, the U.S. Department of Education awarded us a five-year, $4,000,000 Investing in Innovation (“i3”) grant to develop, implement and evaluate the Arts for Learning Lessons initiative. Arts for Learning Lessons is a supplemental literacy program that marries arts experiences and techniques with learning science’s most effective methodologies. The grant went to a partnership of the national office of Young Audiences Arts for Learning, Young Audiences of Oregon & SW Washington, the Beaverton School District, WestEd, and the University of Washington. The i3 grant was open to a broad range of educational disciplines. We were one of only three applicants with a dedicated arts focus to be chosen, out of a total field of nearly 1,700. As further evidence of the intense interest in Arts for Learning Lessons, the national office succeeded in raising an additional $800,000 in matching funds in a scant month’s time.

U.S Secretary of Education Arne Duncan has said, “i3 will support creative thinkers who test good ideas and take proven approaches

7 CONNECTING ART TO OTHER LEARNING

The i3 grant was open to a broad range of educational disciplines. We were one of only three applicants with a dedicated arts focus to be chosen, out of a total field of nearly 1,700. As further evidence of the intense interest in Arts for Learning Lessons, the national office succeeded in raising an additional $800,000 in matching funds in a scant month’s time.

U. S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan has said, “i3 will support creative thinkers who test good ideas and take proven approaches to scale so more children can benefit.” We couldn’t agree more. We’re continually asking ourselves, “What do methodologies of good teaching look like? How can we be sure that our kids are getting what they’re supposed to be getting from our programs?” Precisely to get at the answers to questions like these, 20% of the funds from the i3 grant are allocated to WestEd for rigorous assessment and documentation of Arts for Learning Lessons’ effectiveness.

The i3 award belongs to the entire network, not to the national office or a single affiliate. Our plan is to take its most successful practices and serve them up to the nation through our existing affiliates, as well as through other arts-in-education organizations we hope will join us as new affiliates. The challenge of bringing out the potential in our children will require the best we all have to offer. The results so far show great promise. Young Audiences Arts for Learning will keep advocating for our kids until we make that promise good.

LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND PRESIDENT

For Young Audiences Arts for Learning, 2010 was an eventful year. This spring, the board was pleased to welcome David A. Dik as Young Audiences’ new national executive director. David comes to YA from the Metropolitan Opera Guild in New York City where he served for 22 years, most recently as the organization’s managing director. He has a rich background in music and education, as well as strong leadership and management skills. We are delighted to have David heading up the national organization, and look forward to working with him to help shape new strategies to nurture and expand the network, reach more young people with arts-in-education programs, and create a broader financial base for the organization.

We are pleased with the growth of our programs and services to young people and schools, especially in this time of economic strain. This growth is the result of three factors: first, the 29 affiliates in our network continue to attract the finest professionals to their staffs, volunteers to their boards, and artists to their rosters. The energy and imagination of these people have brought vitality, increased visibility and ultimately more support to Young Audiences. Second, increasing numbers of schools and educators are contributing to and participating in Young Audiences programs and services and ensuring that students have an opportunity to enhance their creativity and imagination through access to the arts. Third, last September the board approved a new network-wide Strategic Plan that is now in the first stages of its five-year implementation.

The accomplishments of the past year were made possible by the continued dedication and active participation of hundreds of supporters. Young Audiences depends on individuals, corporations and foundations that share our conviction that all the arts are an essential and important part of education. We are grateful to all of our loyal supporters for their active commitment that helps us fulfill our mission to young people, teachers, artists and schools throughout the United States.

Finally, it is with sadness that we mark the loss of our dear friend and chairman emeritus Brooks Thomas. Brooks served as Chairman of the Board from 1985 to January 2010. His tenure at Young Audiences was distinguished by an unwavering commitment to excellence. Brooks championed the importance of children being exposed to and engaged in the best of Western culture, especially

10 classical music. Under his leadership and guidance, the national organization and network grew in size and scope fivefold. He presided over Young Audiences’ evolution from an organiza- tion dedicated to the value and the role of the arts and artists as an end in themselves, to an educational organization that utilizes the arts and teaching artists to further learning and the quality of life among children and youth. Additionally, Brooks led Corinne Greenberg Nathan W. Pearson, Jr. Chairman President the largest and most successful capital campaign in our history, raising more than $2.8 million for the Young Audiences Endowment.

We also mourn the death of Sue B. Mercy, an ardent supporter of Young Audiences. Sue served as Chair of the National Conference committee for many years and more recently as Co-Chair of the Public Relations committee. She also served on the Network Policy and Executive committees. Sue’s passionate and irreverent spirit provided many memorable moments of humor and affection at countless conferences and meetings. Sue had a special spirit, which enriched the lives of all who knew her.

Brooks and Sue were treasured members of the Young Audiences family who gave us their unwavering commitment and provided wisdom, empathy and confidence in equal measure. The legacy of their work and dedication to Young Audiences Arts for Learning will endure and continue to inform our mission for many years to come.

11 LETTER FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

It gives me great pleasure to begin my tenure as Young Audiences Arts for Learning’s national executive director. As I take on this new position, I am mindful of the significance of leadership transition for the YA network. It is also a privilege to be part of a transition that implies both a continuum of excellence and an opportunity to contribute to a new decade of growth and expansion of Young Audiences programs and services. The prospect of working with the outstanding national board is very exciting, and I am also eager to learn as much as I can from the many expert YA Arts for Learning affiliate staff members, trustees and artists.

Young Audiences has a prominent place in the field of arts in education. For 58 years, our affili- ates have provided generations of schoolchildren and youth an opportunity to engage in quality arts learning experiences that nurture creativity, build cultural understanding, and enhance the development of their learning and life skills. In the coming year, I look forward to visiting many Young Audiences communities. There is tremendous potential to better leverage the knowledge, expertise and reach of the Young Audiences network. As mandated by the new Strategic Plan approved last year, the national organization will work with all affiliates to build organizational capacity, develop new partnership programs, explore new funding opportunities from private and public sources and take advantage of new digital technologies.

The Young Audiences network is blazing with energy. In 2010, our 29 affiliates reached millions of children in 6,846 schools and community sites with 85,536 performances, workshops and teacher services. We are particularly proud of our signature core initiative, Arts for Learning Lessons and Residencies, a supplemental literacy curriculum designed to improve student reading, writing and learning skills in grades three to eight. Thanks to sustained funding from The Starr Foundation, 12,000 students across 30 school districts participated in the program sponsored by 14 affiliates. Additionally, 1,800 children in Louisiana, Virginia, Northeast Ohio, Oregon & SW Washington participated in BETWEEN THE LIONS® residencies, a supplemental literacy program for pre-K through second grade students.

12 In August, the Beaverton School District, in partnership with Young Audiences, Inc., Young Audiences of Oregon & SW Washington, the University of Washington, and our research partner WestEd, received an Investing in Innovation (i3) grant totaling approximately $4,000,000. Thanks to this award, Young Audiences will bring the Arts for Learning Lessons to an additional 13,000 third to fifth grade students in Beaverton over the next five years.

We are also grateful to the MetLife Foundation for funding the MetLife Learning for Life Residencies, which took place in 44 schools and reached over 4,400 students. This project is a model David A. Dik for using the arts to address problem-solving skills and habits National Executive Director of mind that are essential to young people’s success in school and life. The Met Life grant, with additional funding from The Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation, also supported the formation of the Young Audiences Working Group. This year, the Working Group conducted three professional development and artist training sessions to familiarize program staff and roster artists from 15 affiliates with the new Signature Core Services program model. I wish to thank Larry Capo, executive director of Young Audiences New Jersey, and all the members of the Working Group for spearheading this important network initiative.

I applaud the creativity and spirit of the Young Audiences Arts for Learning network. I look forward to an exciting year ahead.
