PPAC Announces 2025/2026 Teen Ambassadors

Providence, RI -  The Providence Performing Arts Center (PPAC) is pleased to announce the selection of thirty high school students for its 2025/2026 Teen Ambassador program.

Now in its second year, the Teen Ambassador program is a community outreach and engagement initiative of the Providence Performing Arts Center, designed for high school students in the 10th, 11th and 12th grades across Rhode Island and within a twenty-mile radius from PPAC into southeastern Massachusetts. Students were chosen as Teen Ambassadors through an application process; their applications were reviewed by a committee comprised of esteemed business professionals.

As Teen Ambassadors, these students will learn about non-performance career paths in the performing arts by attending monthly meetings at PPAC taught by theatre professionals. Teen Ambassadors will also attend shows at PPAC and earn community service hours by volunteering at education and engagement events. Additionally, through participation in this program, Teen Ambassadors will learn leadership, networking and communication skills so that they will be able to step into their futures with confidence. They will also start building their connections with business professionals and their future colleagues.
