Master Classes
For Long Island University students, and K through 12th grade schools and community organizations

World-class touring artists that perform at Tilles Center often teach dance, theater or music master classes to community groups, based on artist availability. Past master classes have been taught by company members from the Martha Graham Dance Company, the New York Philharmonic, Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, and many more.
