Prior to founding Artreach, Alice Carron had over 10 years of experience as an Executive Producer of live productions and international performance. Artreach continues to keep this tradition alive. Many of the movies and multimedia experiences we create are first premiered at live events, prior to public distribution. We utilize digital and animation technology at live events to encourage the creative exploration of ideas.
Artreach live events integrate experiential learning opportunities with visual and performing arts to expand participant’s horizons. When local communities explore topics pertinent to their well being new perspectives are discovered that yield global rewards. Our programs make the exotic familiar, serving as valuable resources to teachers and administrators, parents, volunteers, and community leaders.
Community Outreach and Live Events that Artreach has initiated include NASA and the Navajo Nation a series of Focus Groups connecting educators from tribal nations to NASA and other scientists; a “Community Night” education model that links classroom materials to extra-curricular family-based learning; "Women Take Flight" a Centennial of Flight traveling display that explores women’s past, present, and future contributions to the field of aviation; numerous museum display’s; “Community Potluck and Movie Night”, a series of family-oriented intergenerational visual arts activities on Andros Island in collaboration with the Bahamas Environmental Research Center; and “The Future of Biomaterials” a hands-on traveling display and lecture series about advances in medical technology for nurses and other health professionals and students at remote settlement schools in the Caribbean conducted by Johns Hopkins Professor Dr. Emanuel Horowitz.
