About SPARC



SPARC’s mission is to profoundly influence young people’s lives through exceptional performing arts education. Through a variety of programs and classes, we provide an atmosphere where creative expression flourishes, meaningful connections are built, and individuality is celebrated. At SPARC, we believe all youth deserve the opportunity to experience exceptional performing arts education, regardless of their ability to pay. Each year, as many as 1/3 of program participants are able to access scholarships. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, each SPARC program relies heavily on the financial support of our community. None of our work would be possible without contributions from our supporters.
