It is great to see Center Theatre Group continuing it's outreach with the community as a part of it's arts education programming. The experiences that theatre educators may not be afforded regularly can be great supplements to teaching. Recognizing that by giving money to educator experiences instead of just giving funds for capital improvements says a lot about CTG and it's commitment to educating at the source of education. Congrats to the 2012 Fellows and their commitment to theatre education.
