Washington Performing Arts

Since 1965, Washington Performing Arts has had a foundational role in the arts in our nation's 

capital, creating profound opportunities that connect community and artists, in both education 

and performance. Through live events in eleven venues in the Washington metropolitan area,

the careers of emerging artists are launched and nurtured, and established artists return to

develop closer relationships with Washington Performing Arts audiences and creative partners. As one of the leading presenters in the nation, Washington Performing Arts embraces

a broad spectrum of the performing arts, including classical music, jazz, gospel, contemporary

dance, international music and art forms, and new works. Dynamic education programs in

the public schools and beyond are hallmarks of Washington Performing Arts, as are the organization's Embassy Adoption Program and two resident gospel choirs.

Levine Music

Founded in 1976 in memory of Selma M. Levine, a prominent Washington attorney and

an amateur pianist, Levine Music has grown into the region's preeminent center for music 

education and one of the country's leading community music schools. Through its efforts,

children and adults develop collaborative skills and find lifelong inspiration and joy through

learning, performing, and listening to music.
