As part of our school outreach series, we offer interactive workshops with ALH musicians, presentations of period instruments, and demonstrations of historical performance practices. We tailor our programs to our young audiences’ needs and interests and encourage their participation, in everything from question/answer sessions to coaching with ALH musicians.

ALH Artistic Director Matthew Dirst offers at least one lecture per year on the Artful Thursday series at the Museum of Fine Arts. These lectures focus on upcoming Ars Lyrica programs and their relationship with broader themes in the arts. We are also adding community outreach presentations to other locations in Houston. Please join our mailing list for notices about special free performances and promotions. Send us your name and contact info.

Ars Lyrica Houston reaches out to underserved communities and brings the beauty of Baroque music to retirement homes, hospitals, and assisted living facilities. For more information about our special programming, or to book an event please contact ALH Executive Director Kinga Ferguson.

Ars Lyrica Houston offers special student and senior rates, as well as group tickets and promotional subscription options. For tickets and information, please go to Tickets.
