RMAC has partnered with three arts education programs, which are offered to our schools free of charge.
The Riverside Symphony Music Memory Program: Teaches children how to listen and respond to music critically and intelligently and is designed for grades 3 through 6. The Program includes creative presentations and positive motivations specifically designed to enhance the development of students’ social skills as well as their self-esteem and intellectual capacity.
NYC Opera Program: City Opera’s  Education programs give students of all ages the tools to appreciate opera and its relationship to the world in general as well as to their own experiences. Students are introduced to such works as Portman’s The Little Prince, Donizetti’s Don Pasquale, and Mozart’s The Magic Flute. Through RMAC’s sponsorship the City Opera program is brought to our schools and, with the help of a teaching artist, the students may then create their own opera.
New York City Center Dance Program: Education at New York City Center introduces students from kindergarten to grade 12 to the performing arts through dance and musical theater performances as well as in-school performance workshops. Using the NYC Blueprint for Teaching and Learning in the Arts, as well as the New York State Standards in the Arts, English Language Arts and Social Studies, the Center’s Education Program allows classroom teachers to draw on the styles, genres and cultures of a particular work of art from the current New York City Center season.
