Children’s outreach program
The Tennessee Williams Theatre's Children's Outreach Program is more than just an introduction to theatre; it's an investment in the future generation's creativity, empathy, and critical thinking skills. Through engaging performances and behind-the-scenes exploration, we ignite a passion for the arts in young minds.
By supporting our Children's Outreach Program, you're not just giving a child a glimpse into the world of theatre; you're investing in their future potential and enriching the cultural landscape of our community.
This season’s Children’s Outreach Program presented with support from Lucy Barker, Fred Slack & Patricia Henriques, Tom & Kitty Clements, Judith & Stanley Zabar Fund, Ray & Jim Luther-Pfeil, & George Fernandez. With generous support from The Community Foundation of the Florida Keys, The Florida Keys Council of the Arts, and in partnership with the Monroe County School District.
