Our mission is to provide opportunities for a diverse student population to discover their passion. Students at the academy will participate in in-depth studies of multiple aspects including history, technique, and practice of Visual Art, Theatre, Music, Dance and Television Media. A highly trained staff of artist-teachers will develop within the students the courage to take risks and become leaders. Together we will build an active arts community where academy students inspire others to express themselves through various artistic methods. Their experience will develop a lifetime appreciation of the arts by applying creative skills that can be utilized in any college and career path.
