Education and Workshops
Education and engagement is a major focus of The Art House, and is a key part our company values and strategic plan that guides us forward.
The Art House Schools Program offers premium theatre experiences for both Primary and Secondary students.
With school group discounts available on most performances, we aim to give students a positive and engaging learning experience, catering for first time theatre-goers, as well as vocational students looking to extend their training.
