You’re invited to join us for two powerful evenings of music, dance, theater, and more as our resident youth companies take the stage for Young Artist Repertory Series (YAR) 2025 — a culminating showcase of their artistic growth, creative voice, and vision.
What is YAR?
Since 1989, the Young Artist Repertory Series has honored the journey of the East Bay Center’s most dedicated student artists. Rooted in our Deep Roots, Wide World curriculum, YAR reflects a broad cultural spectrum — West African music and dance, Traditional Mexican Son, jazz, theater, chamber music, and voice — all brought together in one dynamic and inclusive space.
Under the guidance of professional faculty and mentors, students work alongside accomplished adult artists to present both traditional masterworks and original creations. The result is a vibrant celebration of intergenerational art, culture, and community.
On May 9 only, special guest performance by Robert Moses’ Kin dance company – don’t miss out!
RSVP today!

'In Visibility' A Collaboration with Robert Moses
2025-06-13 19:00 - 20:00 | East Bay Center for the Performing Arts, 339 11th Street, Richmond, CA, 94801-3105, United States
At a moment when the call to amplify the voices of impacted communities feels louder than ever, In Visibility emerges as a powerful response. East Bay Center for the Performing Arts, in collaboration with renowned choreographer Robert Moses and the Center’s Dance students and faculty, presents this profound new performance that brings together the Center’s dedicated dance students and professional dancers from Robert Moses’ Kin.
In Visibility challenges the narratives imposed on Richmond youth, making visible what systemic oppression seeks to erase. Through movement and storytelling, it confronts harmful stereotypes, reclaims agency, and reimagines the lived experiences of the city’s young artists. By breaking through limiting narratives, In Visibility fosters understanding, inspires dialogue, and illuminates the resilience and power of Richmond’s next generation.
This transformative work is made possible in part by The Creative Work Fund, a program of the Walter & Elise Haas Fund with support from The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation. Stay tuned as In Visibility takes shape.
