Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts announced its Passport to the Arts Fall 2020 season, with a variety of classes, performances and bonus content (offered virtually) designed for children, teens and adults with disabilities and their families.
Passport to the Arts provides a welcoming, accessible and affordable introduction to the performing arts at Lincoln Center at no cost. The offerings include programs with the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, Jazz at Lincoln Center, the Metropolitan Opera Guild, the New York City Ballet, the New York Philharmonic and The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts.
This year, the initiative’s first all-virtual season, Passport to the Arts is able to accommodate many more families than typical in-person seasons. Families can attend dance, music or drama classes, watch exclusive performances, check out behind-the-scenes content and even meet performers – all from their homes. Offerings include everything from an exploration of Mozart’s The Magic Flute to a full-length performance of The Nutcracker to classes and movement workshops with renowned dancers and musicians.
All programs are inclusively designed and open only to families with children, teens or adults with disabilities. Families will receive pre-visit materials, including social narratives, photos and links before each program. All programs take place via Zoom.
Registration is free and available for families with children, teens or adults with disabilities. Further details are available at lincolncenter.org.
In addition, as part of Lincoln Center’s commitment to serving audiences of all abilities, supplemental materials for people with disabilities are available at Passport at Home as companion offerings to many of the works of art featured on Lincoln Center at Home. New videos and activities to explore at home are updated weekly.
