THOUSANDS OF NEW YORK AREA PUBLIC SCHOOL CHILDREN HAVE LITTLE OR NO ACCESS TO THE ARTS. Lincoln Center Institute for the Arts in Education provides these young people with world-class performances and access to museums—accompanied by in-depth, hands-on classroom study of the artworks seen. Students connect what they learn about and through the arts to all academic subjects and to their lives.
