For Schools
Country Arts SA is here to provide young people with access to arts experiences, exploring and encouraging creativity, imagination and participation- and we invite you to be a part of the program!
Art and culture are integral to our everyday life integrating diverse ways of knowing and being, and the histories and languages of peoples and communities that connect us to one another. All of this provides us with the possibility to imagine different ways of being.
As one of South Australia’s largest arts organisations Country Arts SA is connecting regional communities by sharing these unique stories through the arts.
The Country Arts Education Program is designed to give primary and secondary students the opportunity to experience live theatre that connects with educational experiences in the classroom. The Education Program also offers performances that include resources and workshops that link to the curriculum to support classroom learning.
The 2025 education program sees Country Arts SA again joining forces with other major South Australian arts organisations including the State Theatre Company South Australia, State Opera, Gravity and Other Myths, Patch Theatre and Windmill Theatre.

“Being able to have performers and creatives connected to a show, delivering workshops with students in a one-on-one experience that they wouldn’t necessarily get from their everyday schooling, provides students with motivation, and excitement. They start to see this is something they could actually do in the future and can see themselves in the shoes of people who are doing the work now.
It was great to see students get inspired by the performers and show a growing passion. This has contributed to students wanting to continue in the arts. This is something unique that you don’t often get to offer students in a regional school.”
