Residency Programs
Residency programs offer schools the opportunity to connect with The Huntington during the regular school day. Huntington Teaching Artists visit classrooms for a designated amount of time with the goal of sharing the world of theater with students and their teachers. If you are a teacher interested in taking part of the August Wilson New Voices Residency or EPIC, please contact education@huntingtontheatre.org.

A robust roster of Boston Public Schools partner with Huntington Teaching Artists to educate students on the life and work of August Wilson, and support students as they rehearse monologues.
