OUTREACH
We strive to fulfi ll our mission to enhance arts education with a
rich diversity of community partnership programs. These programs
develop ongoing, performing arts educational experiences with
Tampa Bay area schools, agencies, organizations and after-school
programs. Through these unique partnerships, we work with each
organization to design a curriculum that offers a variety of arts
experiences for members, instructors, students and their families.
CONSERVATORY TO-GO!
Can’t make it to the Patel Conservatory? Then let us come to you!
We take the show on the road with Conservatory To-Go!, a feebased
initiative to allow schools, businesses and organizations to
create their own arts education experiences with us, but in their
space and place.
While the Patel Conservatory offers the very
best in performing arts training, the camps-andclasses
arm of the Straz Center does not tell the
whole story. With artist talk-backs, fi eld trips
and extensive community outreach programs,
the Straz Center serves as a comprehensive arts
education hub, exporting invaluable resources
into the community and creating a vibrant culture
here on campus. For more information on our
education programs, call 813.222.1040 or email
patelconservatory@strazcenter.org.
TALK-BACKS
Meet the stars of the show: actors, musicians, directors,
conductors and performing arts professionals in this series of
post-show dialogues for select performances. Enjoy a chance
to ask questions and hear real-life anecdotes and industry tips
from performers. This unique opportunity is a wonderful chance
to help audience members interested in the performing arts to
understand the realities of the business and to meet people
working in the fi eld. Talk-backs for Broadway shows are usually
on the fi rst Wednesday of the run.
Talk-backs are contingent upon company participation and may be cancelled without notice.
FIELD TRIPS,
STUDY GUIDES AND
EDUCATOR DISCOUNTS
When booking a performing arts fi eld trip
through The Straz, be sure to access the
free study guides specifi cally designed
to enhance performance attendance.
Full of relevant background material and
interesting information, these guides
enrich the live experience and give
additional learning opportunities. Be
sure to take advantage of our educator
discounts, too – educators are eligible to
receive a discount on up to two tickets for
many shows, including Broadway.
