ARTS EDUCATION - THE ARTS EDUCATION PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO IMPROVE THE LIVES OF BOTH PAYING AND FINANCIALLY ASSISTED STUDENTS THROUGH COMPREHENSIVE ARTS EDUCATION CLASSES. GRADED CLASSES ARE TAUGHT BY A PROFESSIONAL FACULTY IN DANCE, THEATER, MUSIC AND VISUAL ARTS IN A POSITIVE ENVIRONMENT WITH A CHRISTIAN INFLUENCE. DOCUMENTED STUDIES HAVE PROVEN THAT STUDENTS PARTICIPATING IN ARTS EDUCATION REACH HIGHER ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT, IMPROVED PHYSICAL FITNESS AND HIGHER SELF-ESTEEM.
ARTS OUTREACH - URBAN STAGE - URBAN STAGE PROVIDES DANCE INSTRUCTION TO STUDENTS AT NO COST. THIS PROGRAM SERVES UNDERPRIVILEGED AND UNDER-SERVED STUDENTS WHO LIVE BELOW THE POVERTY LEVEL IN THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD. THE DANCE INSTRUCTION, DANCE ATTIRE, SHOES AND PERFORMANCE COSTUMES ARE PROVIDED AT NO COST TO THE STUDENT. GRADED CLASSES ARE TAUGHT BY A PROFESSIONAL TEACHER, IN A POSITIVE ENVIRONMENT WITH A CHRISTIAN INFLUENCE. PARTICIPATING STUDENTS WOULD NOT HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO RECEIVE ARTS EDUCATION BASED ON THEIR SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC DISADVANTAGES. BY RECEIVING AN EDUCATION IN THE ARTS, THESE STUDENTS WILL HOPEFULLY BE BETTER EQUIPPED TO RISE ABOVE THEIR CURRENT SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENTS AND SUCCEED IN LIFE.
ARTS CELEBRATION PERFORMANCE FOR ALL AINA AND US STUDENTS - THE ARTS CELEBRATION PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY FOR STUDENTS TO SHOWCASE THEIR HARD WORK AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS ON AN ANNUAL BASIS. STUDENTS FROM ALL PROGRAMS AND ALL ART DISCIPLINES HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISPLAY OR PERFORM THEIR ART FOR THEIR FRIENDS, FAMILIES AND THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY. STUDENTS, WHO PERFORM ON STAGE OR EXHIBIT THEIR ART, EXPERIENCE HIGHER SELF-ESTEEM WHICH CARRIES INTO ALL ASPECTS OF THEIR LIVES. THE SUCCESS THAT THE STUDENTS REALIZE IN THESE FINAL PERFORMANCES FURTHER ENRICHES THE BENEFITS THEY RECEIVE THROUGH ARTS EDUCATION.
