Learning The Ropes In The World Of Arts

Oregon Shakespeare Festival

We want our students to do better in school, but budget cuts in recent years fell hard on offerings like art and music. 

And those offerings can be critical to the success of some students.  The Oregon Arts Commission recently announced grants to bring knowledge of arts careers to those students through the "World of Work" projects. 

We hear about the Oregon Shakespeare Festival and other venues where the students will learn.
