Gallagher Bluedorn Performing Arts Center

Gallagher Bluedorn’s various educational programs broaden youth’s understanding and participation in the arts among communities throughout Iowa and serves the Center’s mission to inspire. The Kaleidoscope Series creates a deeper understanding of classroom subjects, serving as a supplementary tool in teaching core curriculum. In many cases the performances create an entry point for discussion of challenging material. The Series, a school-time matinee series, has reached over 400,000 youth throughout the state of Iowa throughout the span of 15 years. The Gallagher Bluedorn requests $2,135 to support the Kaleidoscope performance of Out of Bounds, for students in grades 6-9.
