In The Circle of Future Performance we envisioned new opportunities in the performing arts and heard a wise wishlist from participating high school & college students. We heard your call for mentorship, spaces to gather and rehearse, and opportunities to collaborate with artists & community members outside of your own school/town… so we are offering EPOCH GENERATION as a new program! Senator Bernie Sanders has secured federal dollars to expand access to new & innovative afterschool programs in our state and EPOCH GENERATION was selected to be one of the 39 programs that will benefit from this support! Thanks Senator Sanders! Open to area teens, EPOCH GENERATION is a supported space to generate new narratives for the new epoch of performance. SIGN-UP IS NOW OPEN!

what we OFFER
programs & workshops
With a hands-on, team-driven approach, ITA uses storytelling & the performing arts to co-create with and within community. We do not create art that sets us apart ─ we do not create art where the most talented shine. We create art that galvanizes collective vision. Put simply … we make projects that build connections! Our workshops are designed to be inclusive of learners of all ages and newcomers to the arts.
