THE UPCOMING SEASON CONNECTS CLASSROOM LESSONS TO LIVE PERFORMING ARTS EXPERIENCES
The Fox Cities Performing Arts Center announced the 2024-25 Amcor Education Series to Northeast Wisconsin educators attending the Educator Appreciation Event on Thursday, April 25, 2024. The Amcor Education Series provides opportunities to connect classroom lessons to live performing arts experiences. Highlights in the 2024-25 Season include TheaterWorksUSA production of Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus! The Musical, Mister C Live! Air is Everywhere and Songs and Stories of the Black Wolf — Wade Fernandez.
“When we come together to engage in the arts, our personal experiences, backgrounds, interests and ideas merge to create new connections,” said Fox Cities P.A.C. Chief Programming Officer Amy Gosz. “Local students and educators can share in these experiences as they watch classroom lessons come alive on stage. These students expand their critical thinking and ignite imaginations through performances that features various themes including STEAM (science, technology, engineering, the arts and mathematics), music, rhythm, culture, storytelling and more.”
The Amcor Education Series is supported by the Series Title Partner, Amcor. A variety of live stage performances are available for students in grades pre-K through 12 from private and public schools, state-registered home schools and state-licensed family or group care centers throughout Northeast Wisconsin and upper Michigan. The Amcor Education Series connects to classroom curriculum, Wisconsin Academic Standards and brings to life subjects including science, literature and social studies.
