Abstract
This project explores and describes the process of performing arts programming,
in coordination with community engagement strategies, in an effort for a
performing arts center to offer a better and more accurate representation of its
community. Though an in-depth case study analysis of a performing arts center
located in a suburban community, this study serves as a practical exploration of
performing arts center programming for arts administrators as an
acknowledgement of the responsibility local performing arts centers have in
creating a space for cultivating community engagement and support, ultimately
resulting in authentic representation of the community in which the performing
arts center resides.
