The UC Santa Barbara Dance Company participates in the Arts Catalog every year and produces educational performances throughout Santa Barbara County.
The Children’s Creative Project strives to bring more performances and workshops to Central Coast schools through the Arts Catalog every year. This year, we are thrilled to announce the release of our updated and wholly redesigned Arts Catalog for the 2023-2024 season, filled with exciting information about our Touring Artist Program, with even more offerings for students. This year promises to be a vibrant and imaginative one as we introduce you to a fresh roster of talented touring artists who are ready to ignite the spark of creativity in students in Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties.
Engaging and Inspiring Children Throughout the Central Coast
At Children’s Creative Project, we believe that the arts have a transformative power to change lives and that creating connections between professional artists and local schools is integral to a comprehensive arts education. Our Touring Artist Program has been a cornerstone of our mission to nurture creativity, foster learning, and build bridges between artists and communities. As we delve into the 2023-2024 catalog, you'll find a diverse array of artists, each with their unique artistic medium and vision. The catalog has four categories of artists: dance, music, theater, and visual arts.
