Arts for Young Audiences
Arts for Young Audiences is an important part of our family programming at the Atlas. Shows are dramatically unique. Each season, Atlas features programming presented by DC area organizations specializing in programming for young people including theater, music, puppetry, and dance. Generally, performances are designed for children ages 2-10 and are specified for each show. All patrons age 1 and above require a ticket. Family Fun Days are special programs offered during our annual Intersections Festival.
Bring the whole family! It’s time for CCS’s annual interactive family concert. The performance begins with local composer Charlie Barnett’s energetic and participatory Give Me the Orchestra, which introduces the audience to each section of the orchestra.

Vet Tix provides tickets to events, which reduce stress, strengthen family bonds, build life-long memories and encourage service members and veterans to stay engaged with local communities and American life. We support our troops by honoring their service and providing positive family and life experiences, during and after their years of service to our country.
