Fall 2011 Performance of "You Are What You Eat"

Students are exposed to music, dance and theater through weekly classes by Darlington's professional artists while preparing a community presentation for the end of each 16-week semester. Through this arts education, students learn self-confidence, how to express themselves clearly and how to work with others.

This year the students have been focusing on nutrition and healthy eating. Their Fall play was entitled "You Are What You Eat" and included 5 original songs written by the students (with direction from the instructor) as well as dances to "Who Runs the World" and "Time of My Life."

Darlington is pleased to be able to offer this dynamic arts outreach program for the fourteenth year allowing childern living in the city of Chester to experience music, dance and theater. In addition to weekly classes, the program provides additional exposure to the arts through performance opportunities, guest artists, and cultural field trips.

This special program is funded through individual donations, Boeing Company, Connelly Foundation, Genuardi Family Foundation, Hoxie Harrison Smith Foundation, ING Direct and Lomax Foundation.

    Bali Arts Festival
    Russia's White Nights Festival
    India's Festival of Lights
