“My week at the McCallum Theatre Institute brought a breath of fresh air as I reexamined my own beliefs and an educational philosophy that applies not only to the arts but to all learning.”
Susie Beaty, Washington Charter School, Introductory Course participant 2009
“I was hoping this course would renew my inspiration and courage to often implement exploration in music, movement and art to instill more appreciation of the arts in my students. It did just that.”
Carol Weiner, Lincoln Elementary School, Introductory Course participant 2009
“My senses have been heightened and I find myself noticing extraordinary things in everyday occurrences.”

With the Field Trip Series it is our intent to offer the best artists
in music, dance, and theatre to the youth of the region. The Series,
designed with a multicultural focus, is based on the premise that the
arts are as important and necessary to the learning process as other
traditional subjects. It is our hope that educators will find ways to
incorporate McCallum performance experiences with the core curriculum.
