Cultural Organization
The mission of Arts On Stage, Ltd. is to artistically, culturally and educationally enrich the minds of children through live, professional theatre productions. We hope to stimulate, encourage, educate, and promote interest in live theatre of all types in children of all ages. Arts On Stage, a non-profit organization in Maryland, has been working diligently to bring educational, enriching theatrical programs for students and families to experience. We believe that visual learning through theatre is a vital tool that enriches the classroom experience, as well as exposes children to the arts. We present in-person theatre field trips, as well as virtual, pre-recorded, and live-stream theater performances and assemblies through our Arts On Stage: Press Play series which was launched during the pandemic.
