Every student deserves meaningful access to the arts. Peninsula Performs! brings professional artists into K–12 classrooms across Port Angeles and Sequim to provide hands-on learning in music, dance, theater, and visual art as part of public education on the Olympic Peninsula.

Peninsula Performs! brings working artists directly into schools through a curriculum-integrated residency model that aligns with both Common Core and National Core Arts Standards. Designed in close collaboration with educators, the program offers multi-week residencies in music, dance, theater, and visual arts—reaching students in ways that support academic learning while expanding creative expression.

Offered at no cost to schools or students, the program also supports the local arts ecosystem by employing Olympic Peninsula-based artists who bring care, rigor, and real-world practice into the classroom.
