Arts+
Transforming lives through accessible arts education
Arts+ is a community organization dedicated to connecting children, adults, and families to visual art and music education. We help students tap into their artistic potential plus develop lifelong skills, including teamwork, critical thinking, and an aptitude for problem solving.
Arts+ Youth Programs
Share the Joys of Music and Art with Your Child
We know the benefits of an arts education extend far beyond the here and now. Our programs are all designed to provide access to outstanding arts education plus all the benefits it brings.
Arts+ Adult Programs
Get Creative in Adult Group Classes and Workshops
At Arts+, we know that you’re never too young or too old to create. That’s why we offer programs for all ages. In our adult group classes and IDK Workshops, students learn new musical instruments and visual art techniques.
Arts+ Camps
Summer Camps Are Open for Registration!
Arts+ offers a variety of weeklong music and art camps that allow students to learn from professional musicians and teaching artists at an accelerated rate and build community with other campers in a safe and fun environment.
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.
