School Performances
Fairbanks school children are offered the exciting opportunity
of attending FCA’s diverse educational programs.
In collaboration with the Fairbanks Arts Association’s FACE
committee (Fairbanks Arts and Cultural Education), many
of the same great master artists we present in public performances
are working with or performing for our students,
district wide. Last season alone, twenty-five schools benefited
from this program!
Residencies
We make every effort to bring together FCA’s visiting professional
artists with local artists and students through
master classes, workshops and lecture demonstrations, at a
nominal fee. These residencies are intended to cultivate the
arts in our community, to inspire, to teach and to foster exchange.
These opportunities are highly sought-after everywhere,
but especially here in interior Alaska, thousands of
miles from the cultural centers of the world.
Education Partnership
Now in its fifth year, FCA's Education Partnership program is designed to
help underwrite our exciting, annual Family Program. This year, your $200
contribution helps us to drastically reduce the general ticket prices to the
New Shanghai Circus and underwrites the cost for in-need children to attend.
Thanks to the commitment and financial support of countless community
members, hundreds of young people have attended a FCA Family Program
performance, free of charge.
This year, your $200 contribution to FCA’s
Education Partnership will make it possible for eight students,
who could otherwise not afford to enjoy the breathtaking,
exciting New Shanghai Circus, our 2005/06 Family Program!
To become a FCA Education Partner, please indicate so on
your sign-up form. The arts are essential. Please help
make it possible for all children to experience the joy
of live performances.
Community Outreach
Through our highly successful Community Outreach
Program, FCA provides 50 tickets to every one of our performances,
free of charge, to social service and non-profit
agencies within the Fairbanks community. If you are interested
in participating, please call us at 474-8081. |
