Creative Arts is a nonprofit community school for the arts dedicated to fostering a passion for the arts by providing exceptional instruction in visual and performing arts to a diverse population of students. Founded in 1978 by a group of parents wishing to offer music education not available in schools at the time, Creative Arts has grown to offer year-round private instruction in over two dozen instruments (including Suzuki and traditional methods), theater productions and classes, and a variety of visual art classes for children and adults. We are currently enrolling students in classes including visual art, theatre and music. Private music lessons are available year-round for all ages.
