21 Community Events WHAT WE DO The Department of Education & Humanities at BAM is dedicated to increasing the understanding and appreciation of the arts for both young people and adult audiences. In its education programs, BAM’s goal is to provide students with the same caliber of groundbreaking, challenging work from around the world that it offers to adults, with curricula that address important artistic, social, and political issues. The department presents an innovative series of performances—including student matinees of mainstage productions and performances designed for school audiences— films, artist-in-residence programs, professional development for teachers, and after-school programs, as well as BAMfamily programs and the BAMkids Film Festival. In addition to live performances, BAM presents a unique film literacy series, featuring films focused on historical or social issues and followed by discussions with experts. Each class that attends a performance or film program at BAM receives an in-school, pre-show preparation workshop from a BAM teaching artist and engages in post-performance discussions. Teachers also receive extensive customized study guides. BAM Education partners with the Bedford Stuyvesant Restoration Corporation, whose students perform as part of the annual DanceAfrica festival at BAM, to provide a curriculum related to the culture of each year’s visiting company.

23 Education WHAT WE DO Humanities

BAM Humanities programs provide context to performances with Artist Talks, WHICH ARE attended by more than 6,000 audience members a year.

BAM Humanities programs offer an opportunity for audiences to enrich their experience of BAM productions by listening to and engaging in discussion with artists from the Next Wave Festival and Spring Season. These artist talks include pre- or post-show interviews with BAM creators, moderated by other artists, critics, and scholars, and panel discussions on topics relevant to the season’s productions.

The Eat, Drink & Be Literary series, presented in partnership with the National Book Awards, brings major authors to BAMcafé for intimate dinners, readings, and discussions. The evenings begin with a buffet and live music. The author’s reading is followed by an interview about the creative process and artistic themes,

The building is on track to be completed by summer 2012, with performances scheduled for that year’s Next Wave Festival. The BAM Fisher houses a 250-seat theater and will serve as a multi-use facility for education and community arts programming. Designed by H3 Hardy Collaboration Architecture, this Pr new addition to the BAM campus—named for visionary BAM supporter Richard B. Fisher (1936–2004)—will provide subsidized use to local arts groups for several months every year through a permanent endowment from the Brooklyn Community Foundation. It will also allow for the expansion of BAM’s successful school-based performances, family events, and oj student workshops, in addition to providing a smaller performance venue—the Judith & Alan Fishman Space—for emerging artists and artistic work that requires a more intimate venue. Additional named elements include the Samuel H. Scripps Stage, the Rita K. Hillman Studio, the Max Leavitt Theater Workshop, the Geraldine Stutz Gardens, and the Peter Jay Sharp Lobby ec exhibition space. BAM has also completed the design for the renovation of the BAM Harvey Theater, which will occur during the summer of 2012.
