Education

The Popejoy Presents season is not the only season we present in Popejoy Hall. Other seasons inlude our education programs, programs you support with your donations. We are working hard to meet our mission through life-long learning programs that enrich, educate and entertain the public by focusing on creativity, communication and literacy.

Our educational programs are:

Popejoy Schooltime Series

Popejoy Senior Program

Albuquerque students get
Japanese drumming lessons from
San Jose Taiko a few seasons back.

Popejoy Schooltime Series

Our twelfth season of the Popejoy Schooltime Series continues the tradition of educating over 33,000 local students through their experiences with live professional performances. Our shows range from puppetry to musicals, multi-media events to dance, and one-man shows to ensembles. Productions complement classroom instruction and enhance both the meaning and enjoyment of the theatrical experience for all involved.

We are still putting the finishing touches on programming for the coming season. Some of the shows we have had in the past include Roald Dahl's Willy Wonka, Let's Go Science Show, Viva Nuevo Mexico and introductory versions of Romeo and Juliet, Mariachi Christmas and The Nutcracker.

The Popejoy Schooltime Series is funded in part by the Urban Enhancement Trust Fund and PNM.

Popejoy Senior Program

The Popejoy Senior Program provides over 1,000 free tickets to selected events for low-income senior citizens. These tickets are distributed through the City of Albuquerque’s Department of Senior Affairs at meal sites and some senior centers.

We hope you continue to support these and other Popejoy programs through your generous gifts.
