An Interactive Timeline
Joy is a major component of Young Audiences of Louisiana’s (YALA) work and, over the years, YALA has endured through the unique challenges faced by New Orleanians, in large part, due to the joyful experiences created by dedicated teaching artists, community partners, and funders who offer their time and financial support. However, YALA also endures because of the children, families, and educators who continue to inspire and make the work worthwhile. Travel through 60 years of arts education and meet some of the people who made it possible.
