Stages Performing Arts

About Stages Performing Arts

At Stages Chicago, we believe that the performing arts should be accessible to all. That is why in 2016 we founded our arts education program, dedicated to bringing the highest quality, developmentally appropriate performing arts experiences to children and families of all ages and abilities. Our curriculum is developed by professional performers and early childhood development professionals, who have decades of experience onstage and in the classroom. From music classes for infants that are also enjoyable for adults, to after school programs that provide training for the next generation of performers, Stages Chicago has a wide array of inclusive programming. In 2021, we proudly transitioned to a not-for-profit organization in order to increase our reach and provide even more support for our mission. We are thrilled to be able to offer more opportunities for children and families to access quality performing arts experiences. With a growing selection of classes and programs, Stages Chicago is committed to making the performing arts accessible to all.
