K-12 Educator Resources

Explore the world and spark imaginations through live performing arts experiences. The Modlin Center invites visiting artists from the Modlin Arts Presents season to engage with K-12 students and educators through school matinee performances at the Modlin Center, in-school assembly performances, workshops, and classroom visits.

These free opportunities are open to public, private, and homeschool students in grades K-12. 

In-School Visiting Artist Engagement

Want to partner with us to bring visiting artists into your school for artistic and educational residencies, including master classes, workshops, assembly performances, and more? Contact Shannon Hooker at shooker@richmond.edu for more information and to discuss opportunities.

Educator Workshops

We collaborate with Partners in the Arts to explore a variety of arts integration strategies you can use in your classroom. These professional development workshops are free and open to all subject areas.
