Youth Program Director Evan Tingle leads Somerville Media Center’s out-of-school time programs for 3rd through 9th grade students.
A graduate of the Theatre Performance program of Humber Polytechnic (formerly Humber College Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning) Evan developed as a performer and self-sustaining creative professional. Humber fosters an entrepreneurial skill set including design, visual communication, and public relations, which Evan applied to promoting theatrical productions and youth workshops across Toronto. Evan’s self-directed experience in graphic design, social media strategy, and arts marketing remains integral to helping young creators understand how storytelling and presentation influence audience engagement.
Evan’s 10 years of professional experience includes leading expressive early-childhood programs in Toronto, directing youth theatre productions and designing arts-integrated curricula for after school programs in Newton, MA, and operating the visual arts and after school program for Cambridge Montessori School in Cambridge, MA.
Evan’s work at Somerville Media Centers drives technically accessible, emotionally supportive, and creatively ambitious programs for youth. His work is rooted in the belief that every young person has creative potential worth cultivating.
