We engage children in experiences that reinforce a positive personal identity, strong peer relationships, quality skill development in the arts, and a powerful sense of community responsibility.
Our teachers are trained to nurture, educate and support the artists of tomorrow.
Studies show that art and music education improve cognitive function, memory and social skills.
Children are the most important thing in the world.
