Performing Arts Fort Worth (PAFW)

Performing Arts Fort Worth (PAFW) owns and operates Bass Performance Hall. The Hall functions as a classroom for more than 70,000 children each year, enriching their educational experiences through a variety of performing arts programs – provided free of charge by the PAFW Children’s Education Program. To ensure that the performing arts are a fundamental part of every student’s education, PAFW partners with Fort Worth ISD in creating a district-wide mandate that all students in first through fifth grades attend a Children’s Education Program (CEP) curriculum-based performance each year. JLFW volunteers are CEP ambassadors or representatives, who extend a personal connection and deliver critical communication to the schools.
