The Office of Education and Community Outreach (OECO) develops community-based programs in multiple arts disciplines that serve children as well as young and older adults including university students.  Several programs are topic-specific and explore the arts in relation to other subject areas such as health. While some programs are by invitation, many are open to the general public.
