Sesame Workshop is a not-for-profit educational organization that stands alone in its ability to creatively help solve major educational and developmental needs that affect children around the world. For over 30 years, the Workshop has created innovative and engaging media to help all children reach their highest potential. The organization grounds its work in research to understand how multi-media platforms help children learn, develop and grow. Best known as the creators of Sesame Street, Dragon Tales and Sagwa, the Chinese Siamese Cat airing on PBS, the Workshop continues to break new ground with Noggin, the only 24-hour kids’ thinking channel.

Together with other partners, AMC and Sesame Workshop created the highly successful multimedia program “Sesame Street Music Works,” which helps get more young kids into music making by providing home toolkits and online activities to parents, educators and caregivers across the country. One of the Workshop’s leading citizens, Sesame Street’s Elmo, came to Washington with AMC in 2002 to talk to Congress about the importance of music education.
