Welcome to Urban Gateways
| For
over 45 years, educators, parents, administrators
and students have relied on the services of Urban Gateways
to enhance a student's educational experience by helping them
discover the arts. Through our Artist in Residence programs,
our Touring and Matinee Performances, and our custom-designed
special projects, Urban Gateways teaches children, their teachers
and their parents the value of arts in education. |
|
| We believe the skills developed
and knowledge acquired through arts study – observing
a subject matter, working within it, studying its social,
historical, and humanistic context, and analyzing and critiquing
it - directly apply to, and directly improve, other courses
of study and other aspects of the student’s life. |
 |
|
| At Urban
Gateways, our mission is to improve the quality of a child’s
life by incorporating the arts into all levels of education
for aesthetic, cultural, and personal development; to ensure
that children have equitable access the arts; and to serve as
an arts education resource both for the Chicago metropolitan
area and the nation at large. |
