The Performing Arts project is designed to help youth learn to express themselves in front of a crowd either on-stage, backstage, as a puppeteer, or writing their own script. This is great for youth who enjoy being in the spotlight, like to be creative while performing on-stage, or enjoy setting up backstage.

There is 4-H curriculum that can be purchased for anyone interested in the Performing Arts project. Here is a breakdown of what young people can learn at different ages/stages:

 

Ages 7-9:

• Learn to express yourself through movement, voice, speech and acting

• Create and present a play

• Do skits, pantomime, readings and clowning

 

Ages 10-13:

• Learn about puppets

• Create a puppet, stage and kit

• Do puppet therapy

 

Ages 14 and Older:

• Create costumes, sets and props
