Creative Learning
As a leader in the Eugene arts and culture community, the Hult Center provides students with access to the arts through free student matinees, workshops, Q&As, and more!
STUDENT MATINEES
Each season, the Hult Center programs free student matinees for students of all grades. In addition to seeing a show, students often have the chance to attend a post-show talk back or Q&A session with the artists. These post-show opportunities, along with study guides, allow the students to gain a holistic understanding of the performance and how it integrates into their studies and life.
In our 2024-2025 Student Matinee season we welcomed 3,444 students into our halls for four performances, almost doubling the number of students from last season!

WORKSHOPS
Each season through our Hult Presents program, the Hult Center works with professional artists to provide workshops for community members of all ages. Workshops are usually free, or a minimal registration fee, and allow students to work directly with professional artists, exploring their craft in an interactive way.
Last season we collaborated with Broadway shows like Les Misérables and Mean Girls, and with artists from our Discovery Series, Pamyua and Las Cafeteras to host several free workshops. For these workshops, we partnered with Pegasus Playhouse, Ophelia’s Place, the Many Nations Longhouse, and the Eugene Public Library.
