Education Opportunities

The arts are an essential part of learning at any age. They enhance creativity, teach lessons in non-traditional ways, give us new ways to express ourselves, and can help us establish lifelong passions. Our programs are rooted in the belief that talent exists at every age, in people from every background, regardless of experience. Please check back often to see if there’s a program that’s right for you or your child. You are most welcome here.
