Who Was Beverley?

Beverley Taylor Sorenson believed deeply that every child deserves a well-rounded education — one that nurtures creativity, curiosity, and confidence through the arts. She often reminded us that all children are at risk of missing opportunities to discover their unique gifts when the arts are not part of their learning.

In these two short videos, hear Beverley share, in her own words, why the arts mattered so much to her and why she felt every child should have access to them. Learn more about the philosophy and vision that continue to inspire the work of the Beverley Taylor Sorenson Arts Learning Program.
