by Long Island Press newspaper, TimeOutNY/Kids and NY Metro Parent, is now preparing for its 43rd season. The renowned
Center will present six Open Houses for its 2010 season. The dates are: Sundays November 8, December 6 and January 24; and
Wednesdays February 17, March 31 and April 18. The times for each date are 11 AM to 2 PM at Usdan Center’s magnificent
200-acre woodland campus, 185 Colonial Springs Drive in Wheatley Heights (Huntington), Long Island. Open houses

more than 40 programs from the staff. . Families who cannot attend an Open House may make an appointment to visit on another
date from Monday to Friday. Please call (631) 643-7900, or email info@usdan.com,
or visit www.usdan.com
Usdan Center will shortly announce additional new programs for the coming season. Its successful Fashion Design
course, introduced for 2009, will continue next summer. Usdan Center has introduced the arts to more than 50,000
Tri-State Area children since its founding in 1968. The Center is open to all young people from age 6 to 18. Usdan’s
program features more than 40 seven-week programs in music, dance, theater, visual arts, writing, nature & ecology, and
chess. No audition is needed for most programs – rather, admission is based on an expression of interest in the arts.
Each summer, 1,600 students are transported to the Center in air-conditioned buses each day. One-third of Usdan’s students
attend on scholarship. Although the mission of the Center is for every child to establish a relationship with the arts, the
unique stimulation of the Center has caused many to go on to arts careers. Alumni include singers Jane Monheit and Mariah
Carey, actresses Natalie Portman and Lisa Gay Hamilton, and members of major music, theater, and dance ensembles such as the
Boston Pops and the New York City Ballet.
