Historical Programs

Darci’s programs support educational standards for students and inspire audiences of all ages to active citizenship. Programs are available both in person and online.

Many of Darci’s performances this year will be online, as she works to turn her program Revolutionary Women into a middle grade book.

I wasn’t sure the program would be as good online, but it was almost better: every student was in the front row!
