Shaping our Future One Voice at a Time
Ok, here’s a quick trivia question. What local non-profit organization was the first to offer day shows for San Antonio schools in 1989 and works hard every year to promote the importance of the arts in children’s lives? If you answered the Children’s Fine Art Series, pat yourself on the back, you're right.
If you haven’t heard about The Children’s Fine Art Series, here is some information that will grab your interest. The Children’s Fine Arts Series puts together one hour shows, especially made for the attention span of a child, with the use of “color, sound, and movement to delight the senses” of the children. Not an easy accomplishment, but they are driven by the idea that children need to be exposed to the arts at a young age in order to develop an appreciation for it, and they do so in a way that also exposes the children to current issues that exist in society. Performers are brought from around the world by this dedicated organization in order to give the children a great first experience.
This year the organization is celebrating its 28th year delivering excellent Children’s performances, and in-case you’re wondering where you can pick up a brochure you won’t find any out in the public, because the company is also doing their part in keeping San Antonio green. You can however, visit their website at http://childrensfineartseries.org/ and download a brochure with more details, you can also view show times and rate each show after attending them. Not only does this give children the opportunity to view performances but it also gives them a chance to express their opinions as well.
Children’s Fine Arts Series is one of 28 original qualified affiliates of theFund. Every Fund affiliate is a non-profit organization that has been selected based on specific criteria and is reviewed each year by to receive allocations of public donations, raised through theFund’s fundraising campaigns. theFund was established to provide a much needed new source of operating revenue to non-profit arts and cultural organizations in San Antonio.
