Eisemann Educates began in 2004 as an education and outreach component of the Eisemann Center and has given access to the performing arts to more than 11,000 children, youth and adults. Its online outreach, which began this summer, is celebrating the arts as well as cultural diversity. A new two-week series begins Sept. 19 based on the book, “Tito Puente: Mambo King.”
