Outreach

About Outreach

Toledo School for the Arts is driven to serve the community by providing professional, quality performances and other artistic products. The TSA Outreach Program is a philanthropic effort to raise funds for the school and provide our students with artistic opportunities. Whether your event requires the sophistication of a string quartet or the big sound of a Pop/Rock band, a TSA performance is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. Consider one of the many amazing entertainment options that TSA can provide for your next event! TSA’s Artisans’ Guild has commissioned beautiful works for companies such as PNC Bank and Promedica. Through the Outreach Program our students are exposed to hands-on vocational experiences that teach them about becoming professional artists in any facet of art. If you are interested in hiring TSA students, please contact Bethany Urbanski at 419-246-8732 x256 or burbanski@ts4arts.org
