September is a time of transition. Like you, we have spent the last six months learning, adapting, and growing.
And just as we have all grown accustomed to our safe-at-home virtual reality, we are pausing to plan for the school year and reflect on all of the recent change in our community and our world.
Transition can be daunting, but knowledge, courage, and growth makes the change worthwhile. So, whether you’re an artist learning new ways to express your creativity, a student preparing for a year of learning in new environments, or a parent or educator helping their child navigate the changing world, SCT is here to support.
Join us as we embrace transition and welcome growth, and read on to learn more about SCT’s plans for the coming months.
SPOTLIGHT ON: COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT & ARTS BASED LEARNING
Hear from SCT’s Associate Director of Education, Tiffany Maltos and Arts Based Learning Program Manager, Elizabeth Coen on the impact of community programs and how SCT plans to evolve, as we focus our efforts on our regional communities to continue bringing resources to schools this Fall.
At SCT, we’re constantly asking ourselves how we can build on our mission of providing children of all ages access to professional theatre. Experiencing theatre at a young age has proven to be a strong tool for young people to build their social and emotional skills, unleash their creativity, and learn more about themselves and the world around them. We also know that not every young person has the ability to make a trip to the theatre, so the mission of SCT’s Community Engagement and Arts Based Learning Programs is simple: let’s bring theatre to them.

LEARNING THROUGH MUSIC: A CONVERSATION WITH CURRICULUM SPECIALIST MEREDITH BERLIN ON SCT’S EDUCATIONAL SERIES WITH KING FM
If we've learned anything in the last few months, it's that giving our eyes a break from our virtual world and screens is key, which is why we're so excited to announce our partnership with KING FM, designed to engage your ears and give your eyes some much needed time off.
SCT and KING FM have partnered to present a 10-week educational series, Saturday Morning Stories, which launched in mid-August and will continue through October 17, 2020. This series brings beloved children’s literature to life through a crescendo of whimsical melodies and narrated plots. Hand selected titles like Goodnight Moon and Peter and the Wolf take families on a classical music adventure where they can simultaneously engage in activities uniquely curated by SCT for each production that the whole family can enjoy.
Read on to hear from SCT Curriculum Specialist and long time Teaching Artist Meredith Berlin on her process for designing the activities for Saturday Morning Stories, what families can expect from this unique new experience, and why it’s the perfect addition to your back to school schedule.
