Arts+ Community

Grow Your Child’s Musical Talent

We know that one of the greatest joys of making music is doing so in community, which is why we offer multiple opportunities for students to grow their musical talents together. In the Charlotte Youth Choir, students rehearse and perform together to grow their voices. In Carolina Suzuki Strings, students learn to play string instruments through individual and group instruction following the principles of language acquisition.

Arts+ Outreach

Discover Our Outreach Programs

We believe the benefits of an outstanding arts education should be available to everyone, regardless of background or socioeconomic status. Of the 4,500 students we teach every year, roughly half receive their arts training at a reduced rate thanks to our extensive outreach programming, financial aid, and community partnerships.
