Submitted by The Washington Center for the Performing Arts
We are seeking high school students with an interest in the performing arts for our 3rd Annual Young Arts Ambassador Program. Up to twenty students will be accepted into this program and will contribute to establishing a vital information link to their peers and the community regarding performing arts locally, regionally, and nationally. The Young Arts Ambassador experience provides an opportunity for teens and young adults to develop leadership, workforce, and life skills in order to achieve their highest potential as citizens in the global community. The program also seeks to reinforce commitment to exceeding academic expectations, skill-set development, cultural opportunities, and by fostering new relationships and networks through volunteerism and arts exposure.
The YAA Program culminates in a student organized Showcase; an inspiring event produced by and featuring local Thurston County youth. The Showcase will feature both performance and visually based art, and the YAA’s will be part of planning the event as well as have the opportunity to participate in it.
We encourage interested high school students (sophomores, juniors, and seniors) to complete an application for the Young Arts Ambassador 2016-17 Season.
