Tidewater Arts Outreach
brings live music and arts performances and programs to people who are isolated from society.
People We Serve
Tidewater Arts
Outreach brings music and arts to adult day
programs, convalescent homes, hospitals, centers for individuals with
disabilities, rehabilitation centers, family homeless shelters,
and other homes, facilities and institutions. These
performances, programs and activities promote human interaction, happiness
and healing for people who have limited access to the arts, due to
health, economic or social circumstances. To see a list of the homes, hospitals, shelters, facilities and programs we serve,

By creating regular opportunities
for artists to present the arts to special needs audiences in a wide range of
institutions and facilities,
Tidewater Arts Outreach supports the spirit of voluntarism in the music
and arts community, including students, professionals, and
enthusiasts.
Performers and Artists
Tidewater Arts Outreach works through a
variety of channels to recruit area artists, musicians and performers
for its audiences. Care is taken to match specific artists for given
audiences. Performers enjoy the opportunity to give back in new ways,
and in knowing their talents are needed and appreciated. Musicians,
singers, music groups, visual artists, dance troupes, theater groups,
storytellers and other artists are encouraged to become involved.
