Founded in 1958:

Young Audiences of Oregon & SW Washington has steadily grown in scope and programming since we were founded in 1958. We’ve evolved from presenting only a few classical music performances to currently providing a roster of over 200 skilled residency and performing artists with programs in multiple artistic disciplines and cultures. We connect these artists and classroom teachers and together they use the arts to make learning come alive for their students.
