Education is a core value of Mid City Civic Theatre. Through our Artist Development programs, we offer a variety of classes throughout the year designed to help artists at every stage build craft, confidence, and collaboration. Whether on stage, on camera, or behind the scenes, these opportunities support learning, exploration, and the shared creative process that sits at the heart of our community.
