This month the LCT Spotlight Series will turn its focus to Open Stages, Lincoln Center Theater’s education program and the virtual reimagining of its highly popular annual presentation, A CELEBRATION OF STUDENT SONGS. 

The New York City Arts in Education Roundtable will host MOONSTRUCK MEETS STARSTUCK: A FESTIVE BENEFIT FOR THE YOUNG AT ART on Monday, June 9th at 6:00 pm at the Park Avenue Armory (643 Park Avenue). This year's benefit will honor the artistry of John Patrick Shanley and support the Roundtable's programs for the hundreds of organizations and practitioners who bring arts education to the city's schools and communities.

Lincoln Center Education, the education cornerstone of Lincoln Center and a global leader in arts education and advocacy, launches Next Stage, a new candid discussion series with high-profile artists exploring the role of arts education in their creative and commercial work. The new series, launching this year and continuing on an annual basis, is aimed at early- to mid-career artists in the fields of theater, dance, music and visual arts. The high-profile artists selected to moderate and speak at the events will represent a range of ages and experience levels within their artistic disciplines, focusing on the intersection of an artist's academic and artistic pursuits and how they go hand in hand, creatively, financially and otherwise. Events of the Next Stage discussion will be hosted and presented by Lincoln Center Education, in partnership with other leading New York City arts organizations.

David Shookhoff, Director of Education at Manhattan Theatre Club, was honored by the New York City Arts in Education Roundtable in a benefit held last night at the Park Avenue Armory's Veterans Room (643 Park Avenue).
