Arts Information at Salt City

~ Dramatic Arts ~

A youth program that preceded Salt City Center for the Performing Arts served inner-city children and began in 1963. The current TAFY (Theatre Arts for Youth) programs continue to serve a diverse population and imparts a tremendous, positive effect on the young people of our community.

TAFY students develop discipline and self-esteem as well as experiencing a sense of accomplishment through their exploration of all aspects of theatre which includes improvisational theatre, music, dance, character development, creative writing, directing, technical theatre and audition training. The classes culminate with a theatrical performance which allows the children to showcase their talents and what they have learned. The production is open to the public.

Salt City's approach has been featured on CBS-TV'S KID'S WORLD and in the U.S. Department of Health, Education
and Welfare publications as a model for all Youth Theatre Programs.

Adult classes are also offered and include all of the disciplines required for a well-rounded theatre program.

In addition, other forms of art, such as drawing and painting are frequently offered.

Please call the Theatre for any additional programs that may be occurring at the time.
