Learning Through the Arts, the Adrienne Arsht Center’s award-winning arts integration program, uses live theatrical performances as the primary path for learning traditional subjects and has reached more than 350,000 Miami-Dade County students since its inception in 2010. The programs are free of charge and include Kitty Hawk, I am Me and The Busy Bees' Great Adventure.
In the fall of 2017, the Arsht expanded its Learning Through the Arts initiative with Kitty Hawk. The story of aviation pioneers Orville and Wilbur Wright comes to life on the Arsht stage. Kitty Hawk wows students and educators with its captivating story of invention and perseverance against all odds. Specifically designed for seventh-grade students, the musical highlights the themes of ingenuity, persistence and love of discovery at an important time in their cognitive development.

Launched in early 2022, I am Me is a theater and hands-on workshop experience that tours within Miami-Dade County to reach up to 25,000 ninth graders annually. I am Me is the first arts-driven, youth mental health awareness program of its scale in the nation.

Finally, The Busy Bees' Great Adventure premiered in October 2023, reaching over 20,000 Miami-Dade County students. Geared toward elementary school-age students, this show about time-traveling honeybees on a quest to save the planet takes place on the Knight Concert Hall stage. The work features Miami-based writers, musicians and actors.
