For nearly four decades, ARIEL Theatrical has provided opportunities for young people to experience the thrill of live performance. Participants discover however, that there is much more to creating magic on stage than memorizing songs and learning lines.
At ARIEL, kids are taught the importance of accountability and respect among cast members. They are also encouraged to give their best efforts and lead with integrity, no matter what role they play in the production. The magic created at ARIEL doesn’t end when the curtain closes. It continues to inspire our young participants as they utilize lessons learned at ARIEL to impact the world in positive ways.
Josephine Swanson, ARIEL participant and Youth Leader, described the powerful influence that ARIEL has had in her life. In her words, “ARIEL has taught me so much, not just about who I am, but who I want to be…..I look forward to being an accountable, respectful, integrity filled, and excellent leader for the rest of my life and showing others how to do the same.”
Please consider supporting our efforts to teach and inspire the leaders of tomorrow by making a donation to ARIEL through the Monterey County Gives! campaign. Online donations are simple, secure, and will be increased with matching funds (up to $75,000) through December 31st.
