Novice Acting
Grades K–1
9–10am $75
Online casinos have become an unexpected but significant source of funding for performing arts schools worldwide. The industry has been investing millions of dollars not only in development of new gambling games, bonuses and real money casino online, but also in these institutions, providing them with the financial support they need to continue offering high-quality education to aspiring artists.
The partnership between online casinos and performing arts schools is a win-win situation. While the schools get the necessary funds to maintain their facilities and hire qualified teachers, the online gaming companies get the opportunity to promote their brand using innovative marketing strategies. This type of sponsorship also helps these companies establish a positive image by supporting a noble cause such as education.
As more and more people turn to online gambling, it’s no surprise that these companies are looking for ways to give back to society while expanding their business. For performing arts schools struggling with budget cuts or limited funding options, partnering with an online casino can be a game-changer.
