Through the generosity of Helen Bing, Burke Knapp, Leon Sloss
and others, Stanford in Washington students have the unique opportunity to attend
cultural events at much reduced prices. During the program, students may
attend performances at the Kennedy Center, by the National Symphony
Orchestra or the Washington National Opera, and an event at Arena Stage, or
perhaps the Shakespeare Theatre or Ford's Theater.
