More Information

Please note, the maximum number of students we are able to host for an Interactive Field Trip varies based on a number of factors, including staffing and space availability.

Classes begin promptly at the scheduled time. We recommend arriving 5-15 minutes early. All sessions take place at the Halloran Centre for Performing Arts & Education, 225 S. Main Street, next to the Orpheum Theatre. Our Education and Community Engagement staff will greet the group in the lobby.
