AATE's 30th annual conference will be held in New Orleans, Louisiana from August 2-6, 2017.
In a city known for being a cultural melding pot, we will explore where our field divides, where those divisions have the serendipity to collide, and how those collisions can make coalitions for stronger theatre and education. With the backdrop of history, attendees will experience the city that created jazz and the city that Katrina and the Federal Flooding of 2005 changed forever. An experience unlike no other awaits in the lush Southern city that has captivated the American imagination for generations. Come march down to the party in New Orleans! Come explore divisions, collisions, and coalitions! We can't wait to see you!
For more information on the Conference, please go HERE.
AATE National Conference registration is now OPEN.

Howard County Public School students participate in a group exhibit called "Imagining Home: Creating Community" at Gallery I at the Howard County Arts Council.
As a part of the Governor’s Emergency Heroin and Opioid task, the PVA theatre seniors at Annapolis High School toured a theater performance to middle schools, luncheons, teacher’s conferences and inpatient rehabilitation centers.
The process for creating this piece was a lengthy one to ensure that the students fully understood the issue. The group had decided from the beginning that they wanted something physical to represent the addiction, and that because this was initially targeted at 8th graders, they wanted it to be a secret that the performance was about drugs. Miel Hunt brought up the idea of using coats as a metaphor, and the students ran with it.
After performing a luncheon addressing the heroin issue, Amanda Larkins, a supervisor at Pathways, a rehabilitation center, has brought the students in to perform for patients. After witnessing the performance for the first time, she said, “It is so emotional and the actors portray the reality of addiction, the heroin epidemic, and the hope of recovery. The piece takes you in so many directions and the moment you realize the connection between the coat and heroin is quite astonishing. It uncovers the mental health connection, the fact the addiction doesn’t discriminate, internal pressure, peer pressure, the hope of recovery, and the unfortunate reality that addiction is lifelong and every day will be a battle.”
With 40 performances under their belt, the PVA seniors have 10 more before they graduate, and won’t stop trying to make their community, and the world, a better place.
