      GRoW @ The Wallis, an umbrella for the robust mix of education and outreach programs at Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, is committed to sharing the arts with learners of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities and bringing their stories to life. Using the power of the arts, GRoW programs address important social issues and respond to critical needs in the greater community through arts leadership, learning, collaboration, and partnership. Overseen by Director of Education Manny Prieto, GRoW features a dedicated education wing on the campus of The Wallis with three state-of-the-art classrooms and a beautiful outdoor Wells Family Education Courtyard. GRoW is made possible through a generous gift from Gregory Annenberg Weingarten, Regina Weingarten, and the Annenberg Foundation (GRoW is based on their initials). Programs, informed and inspired by the world-class artists and art forms presented by The Wallis on its stages, connect audiences with the very best in the performing arts, invest in young artists, and expand access to opportunities in the performing arts.
