PROGRAMS

  • In partnership with Johns Hopkins University’s Arts & Mind Lab, our Arts & Mind Village chat is a virtual conversation between artists, scientists and researchers.

  • Explore the bridge that connects the research provided by the scientific community and how that information can lead to practical application and actualization in the arts and healing community.

  • ADA Celebration

    The Straz Center for the Performing Arts will be celebrating the 35th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), with an evening of entertainment and community advocate recognition awards will illuminate the impact of the arts on building a more inclusive community for each of us to enjoy and thrive. Enjoy a free concert, open to the public, featuring artists of mixed abilities including musicians, singers and spoken word performers.
  • Kaleidoscope Series Artwork
    As we continue to expand our Arts and Health programming at The Straz Center for the Performing Arts, we are excited to announce the Kaleidoscope Series. We welcome members of the community to join us as we explore and discuss the importance and use of the performing arts, in all its forms, as a modality for healing and wellness.
