Youth Arts Programs in Our Building

Theater

We see you.

You’re larger than life, bursting with wild ideas and funny stories. You feel bigger than the box you are standing in. You’re a lot. And we want to see more. Check out the performing arts classes offered in our space, where you can come out on stage and act like a clown, a lion, or finally just act like yourself.

Music

We hear you.

You find meaning in minor chords and beauty in syncopated beats. Whether you’re just learning how to tune a violin string, busting out a three–part harmony with your besties, or performing in a flawless drumline, we want to hear more of you. Play the drums or join the choir at our dedicated youth arts center.

We appreciate you.

You see a spark in the shadows and a face in the form. You make concepts out of color and life out of lines. Whether you’re looking for visual art classes for kids and teens or you’re just an art appreciator, we have a space to showcase your doodles and masterpieces alike.
